Thoughtful Cruise & Land Vacations

A day in Wales

I have been in the travel industry for 5 years, but my love of planning travel goes back to 1999, when I first started helping colleagues, friends, and family design trips that truly fit their needs. Over the years I have planned and experienced travel in many forms—by land and sea, independently and in groups—and I bring all of that perspective to the clients I serve today.I have traveled to Europe several times on both land and sea, throughout North America, Hawaii, and the Caribbean. These trips have given me a deep appreciation for how different each traveler is, even when they visit the same destination. I pay close attention to the details that matter most to you: pacing, comfort level, interests, budgets, and the special touches that make a trip feel uniquely yours.Before becoming a full-time travel advisor, I spent over 20 years working in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors in roles focused on research, data, and project management. That background taught me how to manage complex logistics, communicate clearly, and keep many moving pieces organized at once—all skills that translate directly into planning smooth, stress-reducing vacations for my clients.I specialize in thoughtful, well-planned travel for families, couples, and groups who want more than a one-size-fits-all itinerary. Whether you’re dreaming of a European journey, a Caribbean or Hawaii escape, or a cruise that lets you unpack once and see multiple destinations, I help you sort through the noise and find options that truly fit. I especially enjoy planning cruises, where I can match you with the right ship, itinerary, and experiences on board and in port.My clients appreciate that I am organized, responsive, and honest. I break decisions down into clear choices, explain the “why” behind my recommendations, and keep an eye on the fine print so there are fewer surprises later. From the first conversation through your return home, I am available to answer questions, navigate changes, and advocate for you if something unexpected comes up during your travels.Travel is personal, and so is the way I work. I take time to listen to what you want this specific trip to be—relaxing, adventurous, educational, or a mix of everything—and then I design an itinerary around those priorities. My goal is not just to book one vacation, but to become your long-term travel partner: someone who learns your preferences over time and helps you build a lifetime of memorable journeys.If you are looking for a travel advisor who combines real-world travel experience with strong planning and organizational skills, I would love to help you plan your next trip.
