Meet Our Group Ambassadors

Fran Levoy – Group Sales Digital Response Marketing Manager

I’ve been in the travel industry for more than 30 years, including 20 with Vantage. My role is to assist Group Leaders to make sure that they have everything they need to have a successful and memorable journey for all of their group members. Once they return, I love to listen to the wonderful experiences that they’ve had on their trips. My own travel includes Australia, New Zealand, Croatia, Greece, Eastern Europe, the Caribbean, Tahiti, Egypt, Portugal, and France. This gives me more inspiration and knowledge to pass along to our Group Leaders. When not on the job, I enjoy working out, skiing, and spending time with family and friends.

Dalya Bronstein – Group Sales Digital Marketing Coordinator

Ever since I started working at Vantage back in 2015, my knowledge of the world’s diverse cultures and my passion for travel have increased immensely. I started in the Customer Service Department and worked primarily with e-mail and live chat correspondence. That experience has provided me with a huge advantage in helping travelers, something I am extremely passionate about. I feel very fortunate to work with such experienced global travelers, as I hope to expand my worldwide travels with our company! I have been to many places within the USA, as well as Bermuda and the Bahamas. For my first trip to Europe, I recently traveled on Vantage’s Essential Holland: Tulips in Spring journey, which was the experience of a lifetime. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, listening to music, and doing any outside activity! 

Patrick Dempsey: Group Concierge Support Agent

My number one goal is to make a difference in our clients’ travel experiences with Vantage Deluxe World Travel! For more than 10 years, I have been working to assist our clients in meeting their travel needs. I have been fortunate to travel to France, Ireland, the Caribbean, Mexico, and many US destinations, including Hawaii. My favorite part of my job is hearing about the amazing time our travelers have with us. They are especially complimentary about the outstanding service provided by our Cruise Directors, Tour Directors, and Adventure Leaders. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and playing sports.

Cheryl Sheehan – Group Sales Ambassador

Seeing the world and experiencing different cultures has always been a passion of mine. My first experience traveling was to London as a Girl Scout when I was 12, followed by several trips to Florida with my high school marching band. After receiving my Bachelor of Music degree from Berklee College, I stumbled into the world of travel as a travel agent. My 24 years in the industry enabled me to learn all aspects of travel, including customer service, marketing, sales, and management. My favorite pastime is talking about travel. I enjoy listening to others’ vacation stories and love to envision their experiences. When I am not singing in church or my local choral society, I enjoy traveling around the world with my husband and son. My favorite destinations include Holland, Israel, Portugal, Italy, Hawaii, and central Florida. I look forward to sharing my love for travel with you and your group.

Amanda Resendes - Group Sales Ambassador

I enjoy being part of an experienced Group Sales team who love what they do! As a seasoned traveler myself, I understand firsthand how traveling can result in some of the best experiences of your life. The opportunity to help our customers live out their travel dreams is something I look forward to everyday. My passion and enthusiasm for travel translates to my interactions with Group Leaders, and it’s important to me to ensure a positive and worthwhile experience for them. One of my favorite parts of traveling is hearing stories from fellow wanderers, and now I get the chance to do that every day (talk about a dream job!). With more than five years in sales and 10 years of travel experience, I will be your right hand (woman as you create your Group travel experience. When I’m not talking travel, you can find me in the kitchen cooking something delicious, enjoying a good book, and staying active (running and exercising are favorites of mine). Fun fact: After college, I moved to South Korea to work as an English Teacher!

I look forward to assisting you and your Group with all of your travel needs!

Kurt Martell – Group Sales Ambassador

I have had the pleasure of working at Vantage for over six years.  Every day I come to work I know that it is going to be a good day, because I get to help people live out their dreams of traveling the world!  I feel confident in the quality of our product and know that every group travel experience will be unique and unforgettable with Vantage.  I look forward to working with all Group Leaders and ensure that I will do everything I can to make the process as easy as possible for the journey of a lifetime!  I recently had the opportunity to travel with Vantage CEO Henry Lewis on the Croatia & the Adriatic Coast journey aboard the private yacht, La Perla.  We experienced the culture, cuisine, and history of one of the most beautiful areas of the world as a small private group.  This is one trip that I suggest all Group Leaders take – it is the experience of a lifetime!
