About Me

Business Meeting in Cancun
Business Meeting in Cancun
One area of expertise that I have is handling groups. Incentive Groups - An incentive trip is a reward trip. It needs to be special. It needs to be problem free. It needs to be to a place people will love and it needs to have accommodations that people will always remember. A company wants to have a really nice incentive trip, but, there are budgets, time constraints and other factors which make it especially complex to choose a destination, a hotel and all the elements. I do several incentive trips each year, usually with 25 to 50 participants. It takes a lot of planning and attention to detail, but they are always successful. Cruise Groups - People love cruising together whether it be a group of friends, a family reunion, or an organization. It requires the ability to deal with everyone as a group, yet, treat them all as individuals. This is what I try to do with each group, while working closely with the group leader. Wedding Groups - A Destination Wedding is probably the most important trip in someone's life. And a bride doesn't want to be involved in everyone's personal travel plans. That's where I come in. I've been to literally hundreds of properties where Destination Weddings are held and I can help from the very beginning by sharing my knowledge of these properties until the very end when everyone is booked, paid and on their trip.

First Travel Agent experience\ Great
Reviewed By Khouriana Bachelorette Trip - Ga | Traveled to Cancun ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
My experience work with Angie was great! With any change that may have come up, she was always prepared and more than accommodating. There was a mishap with one of the group members checking in and Angie made sure to stay in contact with us during after hours, by her cellphone until the situation was resolved and everyone was settled in.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    Who Needs Lead Time?

    I work with groups all the time and one of the things I can usually count on is that there will be a lot of "lead time". Wedding groups are planned many months in advance, as are family reunions and cruise groups. Incentive groups, however, sometimes not so much. I have a couple of companies that I work with each year that plan their incentive g...

    Made my Job Easier
    I began using Angie as my travel specialist about eight years ago. As a Lifestyle Director in the Senior Living industry, I was responsible for planning outings for the residents, including cruises. I “discovered” Angie at a Carrollton location, and, oh, did she make my job easier. With senior needs and concerns in mind, she always went the extra mile. When needed, she even came to the senior community for Q & A’s, helping with documentation, baggage, working out payment schedules, and arranging transportation to and from the ports. She was always there to be supportive of their personal needs and wishes. We also use Angie for our personal travel. We have been on four cruises, arranged and booked for us by Angie. We are fortunate to have Angie as our travel agent and friend. We frequently refer other friends and family to her whenever we are asked for the name of a great travel agent. We have never been disappointed in her service. She is the best!
