About Me

Group Travel Specialist - All-Inclusive Resorts

Multi-Year Award Winning Travel Advisor 

“You have to go in order to know.” This is something I believe VERY strongly in. How can someone recommend a destination if one has never visited it and become immersed in the culture?

2026 begins my 15th year as a full-time travel professional. I have personally visited Cancun/Riviera Maya/Playa Mujeres, Puerto Vallarta/Riviera Nayarit, & Los Cabos 130+ times since 2012. I’ve also hopped a plane to the Hawaiian Islands over a dozen times. Jamaica is also close to my heart, as I’ve been to the land of "no worries, mon" eight times and visited various other Caribbean islands including the beautiful Dominican Republic and Aruba. All of these beautiful destinations are my areas of expertise. I have spent years developing relationships with the resorts, their sales staff and their tour operator partners, getting to know them and their properties inside and out, all in an effort to better service my clients.

My passion is booking social groups such as friends trips, corporate incentive groups, and reunions at all-inclusive resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean.

I've also become a huge fan of Virgin Voyages, the adults-only cruise line that is anything but your ordinary cruise. I'm one of VV's Gold Tier First Mates which means I have invested the most amount of time available for formal education of their brand. I have also taken 2 cruises with them in the last year and have another planned in fall 2026.

Prior to joining the Travel Industry, I worked 23 years in the media (radio & television), most of it in sales, although I was a country radio DJ in south Texas for 7 years which was a lot of fun.

I look forward to helping create lasting memories through travel for you, your family, & friends!

"Our wedding brought everyone together in paradise. Instead of one night of celebrating, our best friends & family from both sides were able to bond & create relationships, so by the wedding night, everyone was family.” – Chelsey & Mark G.

"We absolutely enjoyed working with Erika and are so glad that she was able to help us plan out the perfect honeymoon destination! She was very thoughtful in planning our honeymoon. Where is the right destination given the time of year and what we were looking for, and we chose Hawaii!  She is very organized and had great communication leading up to the honeymoon and while you’re there to ensure that you have the best vacation possible and you don’t have to worry about a thing." -Analise & Ryan R.

Amazing and care-free trip
Reviewed By Andy - Dallas, TX | Traveled to Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
I’ve never used a travel agent before, as I never really saw the value. But having Erika manage all the details of this trip made it so easy and fun! She’s my first call for any future international trips or vacations.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Attention to detail with a variety of bookings
Reviewed By Matt L. - Frisco, TX | Traveled to Mexico
Erika has been working with our company for 6 years, not only booking and managing all travel for our employees (up to 50 at one time) but also planning and executing company incentive trips to Mexico and staff off-site meetings around the US and Canada. Her attention to detail and patience with the multiple changes that come with corporate travel is second to none. Because of her work ethic and relationships that have been forged, other employees have trusted her to book their personal trips. I highly recommend Erika for both leisure and corporate travel needs.
