In 2002, she opened Vagabond Tour and Travel, a full service leisure travel agency, followed in 2007 by Vagabond Gals, a travel club for women. Sally also has a long history working with the international Rotary Club coordinating summer and yearlong exchanges for high school students in 23 countries around the world.

Her district received the Gold Standard from the North American Youth Exchange Network under her direction in 2011. Sally is currently developing a program to assist other travel professionals in providing a high level of service to their clients, she writes a travel blog Adventures of the Vagabond, and is creating a series of travel journals to encourage travelers to record their own personal travel experiences.
