I help families, couples, and groups turn dream vacations into unforgettable experiences. I specialize in cruises and all-inclusive getaways that blend expertly curated itineraries with exclusive access and personalized service. My specialties include European destinations; ocean cruise lines such as Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line, Disney Cruise Line, and Princess Cruises; river cruises including AmaWaterways and Viking; and top all inclusive resort brands like Dreams, Secrets, Sandals, Beaches, and Grand Palladium. I also design custom group travel experiences, including weddings. My approach is rooted in service. I believe travel planning should feel as effortless and joyful as the trip itself. I handle the details, so my clients can focus on what really matters: time well spent and memories well made. Whether you’re planning your family’s next adventure, a milestone celebration, or your first ocean cruise, I’ll ensure every step feels easy, exciting, and expertly handled. I love offering my clients first-in-the-know access to special events, custom websites, and seamless coordination.

🎶 Do you remember the 21st night of September?

Because the 21st night of September is a GREAT time to start planning a trip to Hawaii. 🌺

Or dreaming about a trip to Hawaii.

Or jumping on a plane to Hawaii.

Who am I kidding? **Any time is a great time for Hawaii!**

Whether you’re dreaming about the beaches of Maui, the incredible scenery of Kauai, exploring Oahu, or experiencing the Big Island of Hawaii, each island offers something completely different. And choosing the right island, resort, and itinerary can make all the difference in your Hawaii vacation.

That’s where I come in.

I help my clients plan Hawaii vacations that fit the way *they* want to travel, from choosing the right island (or islands!) to finding the resort, experiences, and itinerary that bring the whole trip together.

I’m so excited to share that I’ve been selected for CruiseWorld’s STAR Program! ⭐

CruiseWorld is one of the travel industry’s major annual events, bringing together travel advisors, cruise lines, resorts, tour operators, destinations, and other travel partners for several days of education, networking, ship tours, and industry updates.

The STAR Program is an enhanced VIP experience within CruiseWorld, and it is something I had to apply and be selected for. As part of the program, I’ll have access to additional education, exclusive programming, and more opportunities for face-to-face conversations with the travel partners I work with every day.

I’m incredibly proud to have earned this distinction. These opportunities allow me to keep learning, strengthen my supplier relationships, and bring even more knowledge and connections back to my clients.

I can’t wait to take you along with me!

Think “adults-only cruise” means either a nonstop party or something a little too… stodgy? Think again. 👀

There’s another style of adults-only cruising that I think a lot of travelers are overlooking.

Oceania Cruises is now adults only, welcoming guests 18+, and combines that with something else I love: Smaller ships.

Think fewer crowds. Beautiful ships. Incredible food. Destination-focused itineraries. A more relaxed pace. And an atmosphere that feels elevated without feeling like you need to pack your pearls and practice your formal dinner conversation. 😉

This is cruising for people who want to travel well.

Oceania's smaller ships can also take you to some incredible destinations around the world, while the onboard experience focuses heavily on cuisine, service and actually enjoying where you're traveling.

If you've always assumed Oceania wasn't "for you," take a look. You might be surprised.
