Sean Kirkland - Global Sales
Sean has witnessed a dramatic evolution in destination management through his career of more than 25 years. That awareness, understanding, and experience makes him an indispensable resource to both 360 Destination Group and our clients as we build an understanding of each client's unique organization, culture, and objectives. Sean’s leadership ensures partnerships are tailored in a manner that inspires confidence, creates greater value, and effectively achieves our client’s goals. In his free time, you'll likely find "Coach" Sean on the field as an assistant coach to his children's various sports activities...but his Saturday mornings are quite often reserved for San Diego area 'Cars n' Coffee' events in his classic 1965 Austin Healey BJ8!
Shelly Archer - Orange County
Shelly has more than 20+ years experience in the travel industry and is a Southern California native. Beginning her hospitality career with a 5 star cruise ship line set the tone for a service oriented career. Her natural sales abilities and flair for customer relations quickly thrust her to the top of that organization. By the age of 30 Shelly had set foot on almost every continent in the world and had circumnavigated the globe several times. Combine that with additional experience at a local Incentive Company and a destination management company provided the perfect foothold into owning a top notch DMC in Southern California.
