Jane Reifert is the President of Incredible Adventures. For well over a decade, she’s helped to redefine adventure travel, transforming such activities as fighter jet flights, cosmonaut training and urban military operations into popular vacation choices. 

In the name of product research, she’s flown a jet in Moscow, raced a pick-up truck, jumped out of an airplane and been held hostage by mock terrorists. (She’s also been pelted by paintballs, mistaken for a Russian prostitute, forced to drink warm vodka and questioned by the FBI.)  Jane is one of the few people in the world who knows the challenge of insuring a shark cage and the dress code for flying a MiG.

She helped to create one of the world’s most popular adventure websites and has consulted corporations and public relation firms on the use of adventures for promotions, incentives and team building.  She is the author of “Executive Adventures:  Recharge your Overworked Batteries with Adrenaline Therapy” and holds a degree in speech communications from Iowa State University.

Jane Co-Chairs the Space Tourism Subcommittee of the Space Colonization Technical Committee of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics and is a frequent speaker on the space conference circuit.  In 2006, she teamed up with Derek Weber of Spaceport Associates to conduct and publish “The Adventurers Survey”, a study of the public’s perception of space travel.
Prior to joining Incredible Adventures, she spent nine seasons working in minor league baseball with the White Sox, Cardinals and Cubs organizations. When she’s not developing, testing, implementing or marketing adventures, she can generally be found playing tennis or beach volleyball in Sarasota, Florida.
