About Me

Celebrating with my Travel Clients
Celebrating with my Travel Clients

With more than 30 years of experience in the travel, hospitality, and events industry, I specialize in crafting luxury group travel experiences that are immersive, seamless, and stress-free. As the founder of EPIC Expeditions and Events, Inc., I lead a full-service travel consultancy that caters to discerning clients seeking curated, concierge-level journeys—whether at sea or on land.My travel planning background is rooted in both corporate and social event management, as well as international aviation. Prior to launching EPIC, I worked as a Business Services Manager for a major U.S. airline, then shifted gears to fly the world as an International Flight Attendant. These roles gave me a deep understanding of the logistical and service elements that elevate a travel experience from ordinary to extraordinary.I am a proud member of CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association) and maintain strong relationships with premium and ultra-luxury suppliers. My preferred partners include Seabourn, Princess Cruises, Cunard, Virgin Voyages, Sandals Resorts, Riverside Luxury Cruises, and Atlas Ocean Voyages. I work closely with these brands to provide exclusive group amenities, elevated service options, and insider access that most travelers never see.From European river sailings and transatlantic crossings to Caribbean all-inclusives and polar expeditions, I take pride in pairing each client or group with the right itinerary and travel style to suit their goals. I am especially passionate about creating enriching experiences for affinity groups, executive retreats, solo travelers over 40, and multi-generational families looking for meaningful ways to reconnect.Travel has always been a personal passion. I’ve explored much of Europe and the Caribbean, and I’m continually inspired by the people I meet and the cultures I encounter along the way. My philosophy is simple: the best journeys are those that leave you changed. That belief guides every itinerary I design and every relationship I build.To travel is to live—and it’s my privilege to help others do both with comfort, confidence, and style.
