Hello and welcome! I’m so glad you’re here—let me share a little about my journey and how I can help you create unforgettable travel experiences.

My career in travel began in July 2013, inspired by a genuine love for exploring and everything that comes with the planning, the adventure, the culture, and most of all, helping others turn their dream vacations into reality.

Since then, I’ve gained extensive knowledge, training, and hands-on experience designing trips that are not just vacations, but lasting memories. My love for travel started early, growing up on road trips with my large family. From camping and fishing to theme parks, national parks, museums, and beaches across the U.S., those experiences shaped my passion for meaningful travel. Even now, reminiscing about those trips with my family is something I truly treasure.

As an adult, my first cruise sealed the deal; I was hooked on traveling. That passion led me to turn travel into a career while staying home with my son, and in July 2013, I founded Collective Memories Travel, LLC. The name reflects what I believe at my core: travel is about collecting moments that stay with you forever, the memories that never fade and can always be added to.

I have a special love for warm, beach destinations, especially the Caribbean. There’s nothing like turquoise waters, soft sand, warm breezes, and vibrant cultures to reset and inspire you completely. I also travel frequently to Mexico, where I’ve built meaningful relationships that make each visit feel like coming home. From resort experiences and site inspections to adventures like zip-lining, biking, and water excursions, or simply relaxing on the beach. I truly immerse myself so I can offer you firsthand insight. Cruising, island-hopping, amazing food, adventure, and rich cultural experiences are what I love most, and I’m passionate about sharing those experiences with my clients.

Professionally, I hold an IATA (International Air Transport Association) card and maintain certifications across top resort brands, destinations, cruise lines, and theme parks. Travel is always evolving, and I stay up to date so you receive the best guidance possible.

I travel as often as I can, so I can confidently say, “I’ve been there, I’ve got you.” I genuinely enjoy the people I meet along the way just as much as the destinations themselves, which is why I host several open group trips throughout the year. These trips make it easy to experience incredible destinations without the stress of planning. They’re open to almost anyone and offer a fun, social way to explore sought-after getaways alongside like-minded travelers. All you have to do is choose the trip that excites you most, then reach out for the details to see what’s coming up. Whether you’re dreaming of a romantic escape, family vacation, group trip (your group or mine), or something adventurous or relaxing, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.  

If you’re ready to create incredible memories with your family, friends, or colleagues, finally check off that bucket list trip or meet new people while traveling with them. I would love to help you make it happen. Let’s start planning something unforgettable together.
