Ski Vacation Specialist

Growing up in North Carolina did not offer many opportunities for good skiing, but my first trip to Winter Park Colorado at age 7 hooked me on skiing all the same. While in school at Virginia Tech, I was the president of the ski club, and enjoyed a number of trips up to Vermont each year. After two 'work study' winters in Sugarbush VT, I was sure I would be working in the ski industry.

The logical move after I finished up college was to move out to Boulder, CO. Twenty years later, I still wake up excited to help each client have the best travel experience from start to finish. Having skied all over both the Eastern and Western US, Canada, South America, and most of Europe I have more than likely skied wherever you are planning to head this Winter! My favorite ski area in the world (since 1998) would still be Fernie, BC. Cool, quiet, great powder, and low key.

» Ed Holofcener

Co-CEO & Owner

Baltimore, MD
West Palm Beach, FL

Ed was born and raised in Baltimore, MD. Happily married to his wife Janine for over 38 years (Wow!) We are thrilled that our daughter Ashley and her husband added the newest member to the Holofcener family, our granddaughter Violeta (Vivi), born in 2019. Their son Adam and his wife are proud parents of their grandson Wally, born in 2017. Ed still loves to seek out the powder and goes on at least a couple of ski trips each winter. However, his wife is not really a "cold weather" person so he and his wife are now "snowbirds". They elude the cold weather by spending over half the year in West Palm Beach, FL where he plays lots of golf and pickleball. Ed and his brother Rick own Tours de Sport, which will celebrate its 40th anniversary in 2022. They also own Golf Zoo, the largest golf travel company in North America.

» Chad Orton

Chad, a father of 3, has lived most of his life in Upstate NY, so he knows all about winter weather and has shovelled his fair share of snow in his day.

» Lisa Klimko

She loves to support Baltimore home team sports, and the extent of her ski experience is miniature skiing—she may have to change that now. Married for 31 years, mom to 3 girls and grandma to 2 girls, she enjoys spending time at the beach with family, going to concerts and Broadway shows, and reading.

» Sari Glazer

Financial Manager

Baltimore Office

Sari was born and raised in New York and moved to Maryland to be closer to her brothers over 20 years ago.

A mother of two boys, Sari loves spending time with her family, is an avid animal lover, enjoys photography, and loves arts and crafts. Being so family-oriented, SkiTDS and Tour de Sport have been the perfect fit for her.
