About Erich Allen

A pragmatic individual at core, I try to remain as grounded as possible in all things. Two aspects of my life that I have learned to foster and cultivate over time are balance and moderation. I believe the key to solid leadership is the ability to listen to the team, lead that team by example, and assert yourself when necessary, while remaining tactful. Whether it is leading a group or serving as part of a team, I believe that cooperation and respect are essential to a successful outcome-20 years of military experience, encompassing in-depth training in reconnaissance and intelligence, law enforcement, aviation, financial accounts and logistics management (in excess of $65 million), safety and risk management, and organizational inspection program administration-Founder and CEO of an online travel planning and information consolidation company-I am determined to maintain a high level of physical fitness, having consistently topped military physical fitness standards, as well completed 6 half-marathons in 3 European countries, and am a regular student of Brazilian Jiu jitsu. I believe that physical fitness equates to mental fitness, and allows a person to remain focused.
