“I have worked with Fran for the past twelve years. She is extremely friendly, accommodating and dependable. The traits Fran provides to American Traveler clients on the phone are also some of the same reasons she is a favorite among her co-workers in the corporate office - she has a big heart and warm caring nature. Fran is a pleasure to work with and a person of high integrity.”
