Born in San Francisco, raised in Minneapolis, and now settled in Boston with his wife and five children, Bryan began his career in the International travel industry 10 years ago in the student travel business. What started as a sales job with a small student tour operator eventually became a lifestyle as the Vice President of Sales for StudentCity.com, a division of First Choice Holidays, PLC (now TUI Travel, PLC). It was there where he developed a passion for group travel through student packages to Mexico and the Caribbean. In recent years, he has broadened his travel experience through trips to Europe, Russia, and even Cuba, where he acquired a true appreciation for other societies and cultures. His desire to provide an opportunity for others to share these experiences through travel was the foundation of Tenon Tours.

Although Stephanie’s heritage does not directly come from Ireland, she has the passion and determination to travel and deeply develop her knowledge of other cultures that she originally discovered during a Study Abroad trip to Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary, and Italy.

Erin Church

Custom Tour Specialist

Countries Visited: Ireland, England, Scotland, Wales, France, Germany, Greece, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Turkey, Switzerland, Holland, Czech Republic, Egypt, Tunisia, Italy, Canada

Erin has a passion for travel that has taken her far and wide. She followed her heart and her feet all the way across the ocean to England where she studied Travel and Tourism at Newcastle College. Coming home to Boston after graduating, she started working for the European Tour Operator Tumlare, where she designed itineraries for VIP Travelers and Meeting and Incentive groups traveling to Scandinavia and Russia. But her love of travel pushed her back abroad, working in Egypt and Ireland. Coming back to Ireland to live and work, after visiting so many times as an adult, was a dream come true and a home away from home. Erin was welcomed with open arms, into the small village of Moycullen just outside of Galway, where she was an Au Pair during the day and waitress at the local pub (The Forge) at night. It was there that she had the opportunity to really get to know the locals and become one herself. It was an experience that has brought her closer to her Irish Roots, and love of all things Irish. Now, she has joined the team here at Tenon Tours to use her passion and experience; to bring you closer to the land of the Emerald Isle.

Countries Visited: Ireland, London, Belgium, Netherlands, Czech Republic, Austria, Italy, France, Spain, Australia, Fiji, Mexico, Canada

Studying abroad in Australia back in ‘04 was what ultimately gave Stephanie the travel bug. It was from this point that the lobster-loving “Mainer” decided she was determined to see the world. Born and raised in Wells, Maine, Stephanie grew up wanting to explore other cultures and ways of life. Finally during her sophomore year at Endicott College studying Hospitality and Tourism Management, she hopped on her first flight half way around the world and hasn’t stopped since! Her passion for travel is what brought her into the travel industry working for GradCity.com, a high school leisure tour operator. Recently she decided to take some personal time to travel Europe; starting where else but Ireland. She fell in love with the friendliness of the locals and the beautiful land of not only Ireland, but 8 other European countries as well. She hopes to continue her career allowing as many people as possible to explore the world and plans to do so as Operations Manager at Tenon Tours.

Katie Keehan

Online Content Manager

Katie’s passion to learn about and experience new cultures began at a young age. This small-town, Wisconsin girl’s first trip to Spain, as a sophomore in high school, was the turning point when she experienced the importance of international travel and decided she wanted to do and see it all. After numerous trips to Spain, Europe and a few college study abroad programs, Katie began her career in the travel industry with StudentCity.com. Having graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point with a degree in Spanish with Teacher Certification, it’s no wonder Katie found herself at home managing programs with American high school and college students in various Mexican locations, including Cabo San Lucas, Puerto Vallarta and Cancun. While Mexico was her home for a while, Katie also traveled and oversaw programs in Canada and the Bahamas. Her experience as the GradCity Operations Manager allowed her an opportunity to better understand and appreciate the travel industry. She is excited to be a part of the Tenon Tours team to continue sharing her passion for travel with others.
