Gloria Martinez
- Accounting and Quality Control I
have been
working at Sun Travel for 10 years, since Aug 1995. I
am not a travel agent but like working in the support
deptartment because I have a variety of duties. I have
been to San Antonio (Sea World and Fista Texas), Los
Angeles,(Disneyland), Orlando ( Disney World), Cancun,
Mazatlan, Las Vegas, Chicago. I like going to
Disneyland with my kids, but I also like the beaches in
Cancun and would like to go there again someday |

Karen C'deBaca - Ticketing
I have been with Sun Travel for the past
8 years, working the "back office" of our agency.
Having previously worked in the banking industry for
over 14 years, I was able to make a nice transition
into my current duties at Sun Travel, including the
handling of American Express transactions. Among my
other duties, I make sure you get your tickets before
you leave, by monitoring departure dates, and keep the
library and store room tidy to give your agents the time
they need to help you with your travel needs. I have
done some traveling, but not as much as I would like. I
was lucky enough to live in Hawaii for 5 years while my
husband was stationed there. While off duty, I love to
read Danielle Steel books, cross stitch, garden and home
improvements. In recognition of the job I do behind the
scenes, Sun Travel awarded me the Helen Semple Award of
Excellence in 2003. |

Yvonne
Peer - Support
When I
started working for
Sun Travel in 2007, I didn’t know much about the travel
industry. Slowly but surely I am learning that it is
always changing and very demanding. I worked for a
major bank for 15 years and then I left to try something
different. I was placed in a law office as a
receptionist back in 1996 by a temporary personnel firm
and from there I became a legal secretary. I worked for
many lawyers here in
El Paso
as a legal secretary. I enjoyed it very much, but I
started to get burned out and I decided to look for
something different. I went to apply in a temporary
personnel office again and they placed me here in
Sun Travel
as a receptionist. I enjoy working here and was offered
a position in the Support/Accounting department which I
quickly accepted because I love working with numbers.
