How Everything Started

How Everything Started

Ken, once a travel enthusiast who turned his passion into a career, was a travel agent from 1995 to 1998. Though he transitioned into the consulting industry thereafter, his love for travel never dimmed. Fast forward to 2023, and Ken, now the principal partner at KEC & Associates, LLC, saw a golden opportunity. With remote work becoming the norm and people yearning for curated experiences, he decided to diversify into travel advising and consulting, thus birthing KEC Travel, a new division aimed at offering bespoke European travel experiences.


"We've been advising clients in Expat consulting and coaching for years. It's time we heed our own advice," Ken declared during the launch. The transition was seamless; leveraging the analytical prowess of the consulting team, KEC Travel developed data-driven methods to forecast travel trends, ensuring they offered unique yet highly sought-after European vacation packages.


The new venture was an instant hit. KEC & Associates, LLC. leveraged the consulting firm's network, offering exclusive experiences like private tours of world-renowned museums and secluded beach retreats. Existing consulting clients were the first to take a plunge into these curated vacations, and the word spread like wildfire.


The success of KEC Travel did more than just boost the bottom line; it rekindled Ken’s passion for travel. From his desk at KEC & Associates, LLC, he looked at the rotating globe he'd kept since her early travel days and smiled. The globe was still spinning, and so were the wheels of his new venture, taking people to the corners of the Earth he had always loved.
