Deb Pitton was born and raised in Mason City, Iowa. A backpacking trip to California in high school and a European choir tour with Loras College sparked her interest in travel.

Debra has written and published numerous academic texts and articles related to teaching and mentoring. An advocate for both global and service learning, she combined these interests to develop and teach international travel classes.
