In an attempt to reduce duplication, please see for now. I'll create a WikiTravel-specific page here when I get a chance.

I work in the travel industry in Anchorage, Alaska. I love showing off our state. If you have any questions about traveling to or in Alaska, don't hesitate to ask me. If I don't know the answer, I'll research it as best I can. To contact me, you can leave a note on my talk page, but I tend to be inconsistent about visiting sites, so I may go a few weeks without checking up on WikiTravel. If you have a more urgent query, please send me an email at .

I look forward to working on expanding WikiTravel's coverage!
