With over 25 years of experience in the travel industry, I’m passionate about crafting unforgettable journeys tailored to every traveler.

From coordinating fishing excursions to planning family heritage trips and scuba diving adventures, I combine professional expertise with a personal love of exploration to make every itinerary unique.

My travel career began in 1992 with Morris Air Service, where FunJet Vacations got its start. I started by coordinating Alaska fishing charters; demanding trips that taught me the value of precision, flexibility, and hands-on service.

Over the years, my skills expanded to full-service vacation planning with FunJet Vacations, and later, specialty travel with First Discount Travel, where I focused on cruises and scuba diving vacations.

Even as my career evolved into other industries, including managing corporate travel and traveling internationally as an Applications Specialist, I always made time to explore, discover cultural gems, hidden treasures, and unforgettable experiences that continue to inspire my work today.

Travel has been woven into every stage of my life. Some of my most memorable experiences include:

• Deep-sea fishing in Florida and California.
• Fishing for massive sturgeon in the Pacific Northwest, combining patience, skill, and the excitement of the catch.
• Exploring the San Juan Islands, soaking in the beauty of the Pacific Northwest while spotting orcas and enjoying peaceful coastal escapes.
• Diving the reefs of Cozumel, Mexico and exploring remote dive sites on a live-a-board charter off the shores of California.
• Cruising the open seas.
• Exploring Italy, from Venice’s romantic canals to the Tuscan countryside and the ruins of Pompeii.
• Riding the rails through France, visiting Paris landmarks, and indulging in the finest pastries and crêpes.
• Driving through the fjords of Norway to small towns in Sweden discovering the culture & my ancestral roots
• Connecting with my roots across the U.S., from Ohio and New York to Boston and Salem, while also exploring LDS Church history sites in Nauvoo, Palmyra, and Kirtland.
• Adventuring through U.S. national treasures, including Glacier National Park’s stunning peaks, the awe-inspiring Grand Canyon, the towering giants of the Redwood Forest, and all five of Utah’s breathtaking national parks; Zion, Bryce Canyon, Arches, Canyonlands, and Capitol Reef.

These journeys have deepened my belief that travel isn’t just about the places we visit, it’s about the connections and memories we create along the way.
