Barry Epling started his career in telecommunications in 1990 when he acquired his first telco switch, which he then turned into a publicly traded company, US Tel, Inc. which listed on NASDAQ.

Through his telecommunications business, Barry specialized in secondary, tertiary, and emerging markets.  Some of these markets include places like Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Egypt, Oman, Nepal, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.  Here he helped to develop long distance telecommunications service.

Through these business travels, Barry began his love for seeing the world.  Because of his business, he was lucky enough to be able to see some of the worlds most beautiful places, and his love for travel never ended.  Today he travels for both business and pleasure whenever he can, and is always on the lookout to add new amazing destinations to his list of places that he has been.
