Biography

A passionate world traveler, Linda Cohen has an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School and over 15 years of experience in marketing and management consulting with premier companies, including McKinsey & Company. Linda’s love for traveling as a way to learn about other people and history was instilled as a child when she visited historic spots around the United States on vacations with her family. As a student, she was a foreign exchange student in Argentina, studied in England and extensively explored Europe. Now, with her children Matthew and Emily and husband Alan, she is enthusiastically exploring the rest of the world, hoping to instill in her own children the same love of learning about other people and cultures. So far, the Cohen family has explored six continents, with the seventh, Antarctica, being the family’s goal to visit in the near future.

From this insight the company’s first product line—Go2Guides—was developed
