Rebecca Beutnagel
Group Travel Planner
Details: Rebecca is a machine. She can crank out any project faster than…um…a speeding bullet? This pint-sized lady can belch better than most men, and isn’t ashamed of it. She is also a vegetarian. Garden burgers anyone? Even though none of us will ever remember how to spell her last name, we keep her around because she is fond of brainstorming, doing the job smarter, not harder, and isn’t afraid to try a new way of doing things around here.
Outside the office: My most recent endeavor is business school. I am pursuing an MBA, and will be married to Jared in 2011. Travel is truly one of my passions: I have been to 4 continents (North America, Europe, Asia, Africa) and hope to visit the remaining 2 inhabited continents before I turn 30. I like running, museums, the opera, and if I had all the time in the world I would spend my time learning a new language.
Pet Peeves: Streets that flood when it rains, people who choose not to recycle, waking up before the alarm goes off in the morning, my clothes smelling like food after I leave a restaurant.

Tony Cremeans
Group Travel Planner
Details: Tony joined the Director’s Choice Tour and Travel team as a travel consultant in March of 2009. He has thoroughly enjoyed his experience at Director’s Choice, especially the opportunity to travel with student groups.
Outside the office: I was born in Hershey, PA and grew up in Cincinnati, OH. I am a graduate of Northwood University in West Palm Beach, FL with a degree in Banking and Finance. My beautiful wife, Lesley, and I were recently married in Hawai’i on the island of Oahu. Lesley is currently pursuing her Master’s Degree in Education from Texas Tech University. I enjoy playing basketball and golf, traveling, reading, and spending time with Lesley, friends and family.
Pet Peeves: Potholes, the whole state of Michigan (I mean, come on, I’m from Ohio)

Sarah Dent
Group Travel Planner
Details: Sarah enjoys driving really fast out to the office, keeping ridiculous running jokes with Josh, and can often be found speaking in an accent. Office-mates often mistake her loud laugh for the start of a natural disaster, and give her a hard time about color-coding everything. Everything.
Outside the office: I really like being outside – especially for the purpose of taking pictures. I enjoy rock-climbing, going to the lake with my family, singing, and teaching voice. I never get bored when having fierce conversations over coffee…or a really hot chai…with soy.
Pet Peeves: When dishes are in the sink and the dishwasher is empty, mosquitos, people who text or take calls during dinner or any other time when there is conversation taking place, being able to hear someone’s food being eaten.

Rachel Martin
Group Travel Planner
Details: Rachel is a health nut who is great at telling you what chemical in what food does what to your whatever. Rachel has a different voice on the phone than in person, she likes to have her lunch here in the office so she can go get a diet coke at around 2:30 and is always cold enough to be wearing a sweatshirt or jacket. There are pictures on the floor of Rachel’s office that have been waiting to be hung on the wall since last winter and she is always on time.
Outside the office: I love my daughter Kelsey and could spend time with her doing anything from getting our nails done to cleaning while listening to 80s hits. I really enjoy cooking but equally enjoy working out that so that I can actually enjoy eating what I cook. I enjoy outdoor activities, but with a thick layer of SPF 85. I grew up in a family of four girls and have some amazing memories…my parents, but especially my dad, are troopers.
Pet Peeves: People that hover when you’re putting in your paying at the register, the guy who blocks traffic in the parking lot just to wait for the front parking spot, wire hangers, and wet counter tops in public bathrooms.

Josh Parker
Group Travel Planner
Details: Josh has been with Director’s Choice for four years. Outside of being a travel consultant he also serves as assistant IT guy and manual labor specialist.
Outside the office: I spend a large amount of time with my three dogs, Trixi, Trouble, and Tippin. I recently took my GMAT and will be starting my MBA on a part time basis soon. I really enjoy travelling but these days that usually means staying in Texas to visit family.
Pet Peeves: Bad drivers and stupid people

Allison Turner
Senior Group Travel Planner
Details: As a former band director, Allison tries to remember what it’s like out there for our customers. She often reminds us it’s a three-ring circus with no off switch and no off ramp…by demonstrating it. When on the phone she can be heard from anywhere in the office…even with the door shut.
Outside the office: More than anything I love to spend time with friends, family, and also my dog Whistler – a Siberian Husky/Malemute mix who is a total wuss. I am a Red Raider Fan (Go Tech!) and will rearrange my schedule to watch the Spurs play! I also like to read, especially during lunch in the recliner in the lobby, and I never get tired of traveling…which comes in handy around here.
Pet Peeves: Ruining yummy brownies by putting nuts in them, slow drivers in the fast lane or drivers who don’t use turn signals, and those crazy kid pageant shows (who are these people?!?)
