Ryan Wahlstrom’s website, www.CruiseMarketWatch.com, is providing statistical insight into the ebb and flow of the cruise industry unseen before. Ryan graduated from Iowa State University with a degree in Anthropology and International Studies, and earned a masters degree from Northern Arizona University in Applied Anthropology with a parallel focus on Business and Statistics. He cut his teeth on the cruise industry in 1995, when he founded Caribbean Carriage Company in Puerto Rico, providing drawn carriage rides to visiting passengers. Presently he is a Business Development Manager for the Miami Herald Media Company, taking charge of marketing efforts for products generating over seventy million per year.

Of late, Ryan has been tapping into the pulse of the cruise industry with a series of surveys, engaging over 250 travel agents in probing the health of the industry. You can review the results in detail at his website, www.CruiseMarketWatch.com.
