Meet the Dealers

lisagill1.jpgLisa Gill is a senior editor at Condé Nast Traveler, and has edited the magazine’s Gold List (a reader-annotated guide to the top hotels, resorts, and cruise lines in the world), “Smart Money” column, and the “Room With A View” section. She currently edits the magazine’s Hot List, an annual feature that highlights the best new hotels around the globe--a job that leaves her with perpetual wanderlust.




Julia_Bainbridge.jpgAfter college in Boston, culinary school in San Francisco, and lots of traveling in between, Julia Bainbridge settled into a New York life at Food & Wine magazine. She soon un-settled herself, though, high-tailing it through Southeast Asia (on a red motorbike, no less) for a month. Now she's back in the city and all over Twitter and the blogosphere as Condé Nast Traveler’s assistant interactive editor.




beata_santora.jpgOriginally from Odessa, Ukraine, Beata L. Santora has lived in Austria, Italy, and Spain (which is why she speaks Russian, Spanish, and sometimes even English). Ever since joining her parents on a Black Sea cruise at age two, she has been obsessively traveling the world, from Paris to Tokyo and, of course, Mother Russia. When not busy writing the Room With a View, analyzing data for the Readers Choice Survey, blogging, or interviewing celebs on the red carpet, Beata teaches ballet at Steps on Broadway.
