About Me

All-Inclusive Vacation & Globe Trotter Specialist

Hi, I'm Liz, and it's so nice to meet you!

Growing up exploring other countries as a third culture kid (TCK) developed my passion for wandering the world. My addiction to designing itineraries and researching the most budget-friendly options for myself and friends/family sparked my desire to dive into travel planning full-time. I am an avid Disney and Marvel fan, theme park enthusiast, world-traveler (highly recommend touring the highlights of Japan), and Fur Goblin Advocate. Yes, my business is highlighted by my cat mascots, and they help plan your travels.

Liz is an accredited member of the globally recognized IATA and holds a BA in Communications and SHRM-CP certification. She brings extensive experience in customer service, recruitment, marketing, administration, and human resources to her passion of travel. She is a certified travel adviser whose certifications are kept current and tested annually to consistently provide updated travel industry knowledge. She specializes in Disney, Universal, cruises, Sandals, all-inclusive resorts, global travel, and much more to ensure her guests receive an enchanting experience full of priceless memories.

"Recently returned from a one-night, surprise anniversary getaway planned by Liz, and I'm still in awe of the incredible experience she curated for us! From the moment I reached out with my idea of a romantic escape on a limited budget, she was attentive, enthusiastic, and full of creative suggestions. I can't recommend Liz enough for anyone looking to create unforgettable memories. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and passion for travel truly shine through. We're already looking forward to planning our next adventure with her!" John D.

Disneyland and Universal
Reviewed By Whitney - KS | Traveled to Anaheim | California | USA
Liz is fantastic! She was quick to respond and answer questions, gave frequent updates and even checked in with us during the trip. Any trip can be stressful, so I especially appreciated the itinerary and guides she provided. I truly do not think everything would have gone as smoothly without her help. She was kind and patient with us, and I can't wait to have her plan another adventure for us in the future!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Family Getaway
Reviewed By Kristy - MO | Traveled to Wisconsin | USA
Liz helped us find the perfect place to stay for our family of six. We have five kids, 7 and under. She found a place that had an indoor play area, an indoor pool, and a full kitchen for a very affordable price. She also sent us a list of family-friendly activities and restaurants in the area! It was a blessing for this mama not to have to search for a place to stay and things to do! We will definitely be using her next time we take a trip.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Colorado Family Trip
Reviewed By Amanda F. - Blue Springs, MO | Traveled to Colorado ~ USA
I would recommend Liz to anyone who wants a stress free vacation - especially when you have a family of five and an emergency right before your trip!
She stayed in communication the whole time.

She made sure we found an amazing place to stay where my family could spread out, found us breathtaking views, and even crossed a Stephen King tour off my bucket list!

Even though we had a family emergency, she took care of canceling and modifying bookings and made sure we had everything we needed. There's so much more she did to help make the trip awesome!

I strongly recommend her to book your travels.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    My visit to all of the Sandals Resorts in Jamaica

    I kicked off my one week Jamaican getaway at Sandals Ochi for the first part of the trip and wrapped it up with two nights at Sandals South Coast. In-between, I was able to tour every single Sandals and Beaches resort on the island! Pro tip: add an extra day to your stay to recover from travel! The drive from Montego Bay (MBJ) to Ochi is about 1...
