About Me: Michael Katz, from New York City, is no stranger to the singles travel industry. Having had an extensive background in the music industry, he enjoys entertaining people, and makes sure that everyone has a great time on their adventure. Having been a cruise coordinator for the past 5 years, he has led singles groups across the globe, from the Caribbean, to Alaska, to the Mexican Riviera, and to Europe throughout the Mediterranean. Michael is also a singer and a dance instructor, and can be found giving Salsa/Cha Cha/Merengue lessons to his cruisers, and encourages them to join with him in entering the Guest Talent Show while onboard as well. The emphasis is in having "FUN!" This is your vacation, and Michael will do everything he can to make your journey a "Trip of a Lifetime!" When he is not traveling, and back on planet Earth, he has a successful business called Miche Permanent Cosmetics. As a Board Certified Technician and Instructor, Michael performs and teaches Permanent Make Up, enhancing Eyebrows, Eyes, and Lips on clients that need to have definition restored in these areas. He is on the Board of Permanent Make Up in New Jersey, and also performs medical tattooing for Cancer patients, and Scar Camouflage for accident victims. When not at work, you can find him dancing at some of the best dance studios around New York City. And yes, he is still pursuing his musical career, and is currently working on a CD with ex-Kiss guitarist Bruce Kulick. A graduate of Queens College, and a born and bred New Yorker, Michael looks forward to meeting you on your next STI vacation...and don't forget your dance shoes!!!! (Michael will be escorting our Queen Mary 2 Dance Cruise from New York City to Paris in July 2008)
