About Me

Full Spectrum Travel Professional

As a kid, I read a book called The Black Pearl which was about a boy who lived in Baja Mexico. I was enchanted by the descriptions of Mexico, and I loved learning all about the area's culture and history. I had traveled with my family a bit during my childhood, and I quickly realized that I wanted to see everything the world had to offer!

I joined the Air Force Reserves in 1971, and it provided a great opportunity to spend time in many countries and locations. I continued traveling on my own as well, and in 2007, I formally entered the travel industry at a local agency. My very first professional booking was for 60 people on a luxury cruise, and after loving the entire experience, I knew that I had found my calling!

I soon became an Expedia Cruise Ship Center Agent, and in 2017, I decided it was time to open my own travel agency in Indianapolis which I continue to operate today. I specialize in helping first-time travelers and seasoned-travelers alike create unforgettable trips around the world. From cruises to all-inclusive stays and special events, I know how to make each vacation unforgettable and personalized to my client’s exact needs.

I create vacations all over the world, and some recent bookings include stays in:

  • Mexico
  • The Bahamas
  • Spain
  • England
  • Disney’s Parks, Cruises, and Resorts
  • And more!

I’m a certified River Cruise Specialist, and I also have certifications with leading brands such as:

  • The Disney College of Knowledge
  • AMA Waterways
  • Marriott
  • Plus more!

I know how to simplify large group trips and family vacations so that everyone can enjoy their time without stress. I’ll listen to you and find the best solutions for your itinerary so you never have to worry while booking or traveling. I also have years of experience creating itineraries for families with children, and I know how to find great activities that everyone can enjoy together.

One of my most memorable vacations was a family cruise through Disney, and it provided an amazing experience that we could cherish forever. I understand the importance and beauty of traveling, and I take the time to make each itinerary unique and enthralling.
