About Me

Travel Designer and Cruise Specialist

I have been in the travel industry since 2015.  It was a new found passion.  I still get just as excited as my clients are on the day they leave for their amazing vacation.

My wife and I have been sailing on cruises almost every year since 2009.  I have extensive knowledge and training in planning incredible and memorable vacations, both land and sea.  I hold my PhD with Norwegian Cruise Line University, and my Bachelors Degree with Royal Caribbean College.  I am a Gold Level graduate of the Virgin Voyages Sea Academy.  I am also a certified Sandals & Beaches Specialist.  And the training continues.  The more I educate myself, the better your vacation, while getting you the best value for your dollar. 

Let me help you get you on your next vacation.

Had all bases covered
Reviewed By Aron & Darlene - New Hampshire | Traveled to Nassau ~ Bahamas ~ Caribbean
"We recently used Ken to plan our once in a lifetime vacation to the Bahamas. From beginning to end Ken was there to assist us through the planning process. He gave us many options for us to choose from that would fit our budget. He was instrumental on many aspects from flight changes to COVID travel guidelines which made our travels seamless. I always felt the reassurance if something were to go wrong with our trip Ken would be there to assist in any capacity. Thank you Ken for your services and we will be calling you again soon!!!" Aron & Darlene.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Best Family Trip
Reviewed By Kristie - Neenah, Wisconsin | Traveled to Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Ken did a wonderful job with our trip to Hard Rock, Riviera Maya. Prior to our trip he met with us & truly figured out what we were looking for He gave great options. Ken coordinated our flights and transfers for us. Very kind and professional. After all was planned, he received notice that one of our flights changed, which would not give us enough time to get through customs. The transfer company we used Lomas was spectacular! Such warm friendly people. They were timely and professional, and also had carseats for our littles. The resort was nice. The lagoon ("rocked in Ocean area) was beautiful. The water was warm, didn't have strong waves/under current, so again great for our family! The sand was powdery soft. Ken took our family's needs into account when making his suggestion of resort. The staff at the resort was friendly and accommodating. The kids club ladies were great & the highlight of our 4 yo's trip. We had a great time and made wonderful memories!
