Gayle has a take charge spirit that made her one of the most influential players in our industry.

“Enjoyed speaking with you the most”
You were such a rock star during our recent press event – always the Canadian media darling that my US colleagues adore! Several Cast told others that were being interviewed by you, how welcoming you made them feel. In fact, Nia Vardalos (My Big Fat Greek Wedding Star) even remarked that although all my media friends were great, she enjoyed speaking with you the most!

“A highly valued partner across many of our markets”
I had the opportunity to work with Gayle during her time at Tourism Richmond where her leadership, enthusiasm and passion for her destination was second to none in our industry. It was a true pleasure working with her and her team as she successfully built Tourism Richmond’s competitive position not only in BC, but within Canada and China. Lastly, she was a highly valued partner with the Canadian Tourism Commission (Destination Canada) across many of our markets and was always open to sharing insight, perspective and advice of our business.
