About Me

Overwater Bungalows in Riviera Maya, Mexico
Overwater Bungalows in Riviera Maya, Mexico

Traveling is my number one passion!  I always treat my clients like I would treat my wife and my mother - like gold and with the utmost respect.  I have extensive knowledge in planning memorable getaways for all of my clients; from the luxury traveler, to families, to the budget conscious, and everything in between!  I am an honest consultant and pride myself on being ethically and morally bound to my clients; many of which I am proud to call lifelong friends.  I have had the pleasure of traveling to the Caribbean, Europe, Canada, and domestically!  In the past several years, I was fortunate to visit countries solo to gain firsthand insight and reviews.I have been fortunate to send hundreds of clients to Mexico and all parts of the Caribbean, planned many FITs (fully independent trips) through Europe, booked a myriad amount of clients on cruises, and everything in between. 

My travels to Mexico, Ireland, and Banff are just a handful of places I have visited.  I love lending the little tidbits on what you should experience in a destination for your first time.  Please don't hesitate to get in touch!  No booking is too big or too small and I would love to assist with any travel needs you have!
