About Joe Fahey
Back Story
I have been blessed with a long, rewarding career with a global organization. There I held a variety of executive positions, including leading international marketing and new product development. My philosophy has always been to walk in the customers' shoes to best know how to serve them. This approach has taken me to places around the world that are historic, exotic, beautiful and occasionally off-beat. My interactions with local people add the final touches to making great stories . . . all to be shared with you.
