About Me

I have always loved taking trips and travelling! During college, while studying to be a veterinarian in Minnesota, I joined a short term student hosting program where I would stay with participating families around the world. I met so many exciting people and absolutely fell in love with exploring and discovering different places. It quickly became apparent that my true passion was in the travel industry! As your agent, I promise to invest my time and best resources, while working together, to design and customize your ideal travel plans, be they romantic, adventurous, with a group, or on your own. I personally believe exploring different destinations are some of life's greatest joys. I look forward to being a positive part of your world experience and using my skills to plan the trip that leaves you feeling fulfilled and excited to plan the next one.

Best travel agent ever!
Reviewed By Marsha - Lakewood, WA | Traveled to Kauai Island ~ Hawaii ~ USA
Jessica was extremely helpful with special requests and very quick in getting the job done, but the best thing about working with Jessica is her sparkiling personality. She was so very pleasant, helpful, and kind! She should be your employee of the year in my book! I was very very impressed! Thank you Jessica! You made this a great experience!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Destination Wedding Success!
Jessica has been extremely helpful for all of our guests that attended our wedding in Puerto Vallarta. She has helped us get the best rates and made sure everyone in the group understood their itinerary. I was very overwhelmed with my wedding planning and was relieved when I could trust her to take care of all of my guests. She has helped the travel portion of our wedding run very smoothly! We are so thankful for her help.

Honeymoon in Jamaica
Jessica helped us so much last year when it came time to plan our honeymoon! We both had heard of so many cool places to go, and things to do for our honeymoon, and we were feeling extremely overwhelmed before we decided to come see her. She helped us figure out exactly what we were looking for! One of the best parts was when was able to get a lower rate for the hotel and flights than what we had expected. We had such a blast the whole week, and it was absolutely perfect! It was the trip of a lifetime!

Peru Adventure
Our Peru trip was outstanding! All the hosts and guides from Condor Travel were excellent, very knowledgeable and courteous. We loved the food, and the Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley tours were fantastic. We also were blessed with outstanding weather, as you can see from three photos attached from our first day at Machu Picchu. We appreciated being able to acclimatize in the Sacred Valley first, at the lovely former monastery in Urubamba, and enjoyed the food and sights at Casa Del Sol at the base of Machu Picchu. The train ride was also a blast. Thanks for a well-orchestrated adventure. (Please see stunning photos in photo album)
