Islamorada, Florida | November 12, 2010 | Agnes Flaunda Stradley, Owner and President of Agnes Stradley Corp., has been recognized by Elite American Business Owners for her dedication, achievements, and leadership in various industries.

An avid adventurer, Mrs. Stradley strives to help others realize their own daring dreams. Mrs. Stradley met her late husband (who shared her passion for travel and exploration) while venturing the awe-inspiring jungles of Brazil and plans to continue traveling until she is no longer able to. She has traveled to various corners of the world including a recent trip that lasted more than four months and was spent primarily on cruise ships venturing between destinations. They stopped at various ports from Hawaii to Fort Lauderdale, including many of the islands in the south pacific: Sydney and the west coast of Australia, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Shanghai, Vietnam, the Persian Gulf, Dubai, the west coast of Africa and Cape Town, the South Atlantic, Devil’s Island, and St. Barts. She also looks to provide such opportunities to others. As a travel agent and guide, she escorts small groups of 10 to 15 people on world journeys using her knowledge and experience she gained from her personal travels. She travels to experience people and cultures first hand, instead of just reading about them in a magazine. She enjoys interacting with people and is grateful that her position allows her to meet new people every day.

Mrs. Stradley chose to venture into the horticulture industry 12 years ago because she always wanted to work in the floral field and felt that with hard work and determination she would succeed. She now manages Agnes Stradley Corp., a horticultural firm that features citrus trees and orchid bulbs. She hopes to have the opportunity to continue to purchase open land that she can convert into small parks for everyone to enjoy.

Mrs. Stradley is affiliated with The Ancient Mystical Order Rosæ Crucis (also known as the Rosicrucian Order) of San Jose, Calif. She holds a bachelor’s degree in economics from the University of South Carolina and is a supporter of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. In 2009, Mrs. Stradley was chosen to be featured in “Cambridge Publishing’s Top 101 Industry Experts,” a publication that celebrates the lives and achievements of its most accomplished professionals.
