Trusted World Cruise Consultant & Travel Advisor

I utilize my customer service skills and years of experience in travel planning when creating the perfect vacation for my clients. From World Cruising to expedition cruising, or close-to-home cruises to Alaska, Hawaii and Mexico, I seek to delight my clients, one travel experience at a time. 

My personal travel experiences include the Eastern Mediterranean, the Baltics, China, Mexico, Canada, South America, the Pacific Northwest and Alaska. My many years of living in Hawaii also make me the perfect resource for travel ideas within the Hawaiian Islands, including a Hawaii cruise — such a relaxing escape!  

In order to be able to answer your questions and enhance the services I offer to you, I have experienced these cruise lines firsthand:

• Viking Ocean Cruises
• Regent Seven Seas Cruises
• Crystal Cruises
• Holland America Line
• Celebrity Cruises
• Princess Cruises
• Royal Caribbean
• Norwegian Cruise Line
• Seabourn
• Silversea
• Azamara
• Oceania

Some of my favorite cruise highlights include:

A Baltic cruise with Regent Seven Seas Cruises, where we stayed two nights in St. Petersburg. From visiting the Hermitage, to vodka tasting, and learning what a day in the life of a local is like, it really helped me understand that destination and subsequently answer questions for my clients.

A Crystal Cruise that went from Istanbul to Venice. We went in a couple days early and used a private guide. He helped us experience city life in Istanbul so much easier than if we had done it on our own. I’d be happy to arrange a private car and driver for you as part of your own pre or post-cruise experience.

A “shakedown” cruise on one of Viking Ocean’s newest ships. This is an industry event that I was invited to due to my high level of sales with Viking. It was a five-day cruise from New York to San Juan with no port calls, simply a chance to experience the ship as the crew made final preparations for hosting guests. I was able to inspect the ship from top to bottom and bow to stern. Everything on Viking’s ships is so thoughtfully considered — from extra legroom in the showroom to the beautifully designed Scandinavian spaces that exude peace and calm! 

While I have been on many more cruises, the above experiences help highlight some of the ways I am looking to enrich your travels.

Voyage Host 

Another interesting facet of my background is that I have served as a Voyage Host, which has allowed me to personally experience the joy of travel alongside others, and share my knowledge of destinations and on-board happenings with guests. It’s one of the many reasons I encourage clients to sail on a hosted voyage. You can read more about Hosted Voyages in my separate bio on this topic. 

Finally, as a Cruise Consultant with Cruise Specialists, I have the support of an incredibly strong and experienced team that helps me respond to any need you may have. We have decades of experience in working with detailed reservations, planning pre- and post-cruise hotel stays, travel protection and much more. 

There is nothing more gratifying than helping someone achieve their travel dreams, and that is why I’m so pleased to be able to dedicate each day to being a luxury travel advisor.
