About Me

I specialize in arranging custom luxury travel to Australia,and Europe and in matching clients with world-class, all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean. I’ve been a travel agent since 2002, so I have a depth of knowledge that enables me to provide the superb experiences my clients are seeking. Not all Caribbean resorts are created alike. I have visited and sent clients to many all-inclusive resorts, so I’m extremely knowledgeable about the quality of accommodations and service that exist in the various locations. I help clients find resorts that provide superlative accommodations and cater to their particular needs and interests whether that is simply relaxing on gorgeous beaches, hiking to Mayan Ruins, or swimming with dolphins.  These properties range from family-friendly to adult only, all offering upscale, adult-oriented activities, truly sumptuous dining, full-service spas, and gorgeous furnishings and decor.

I love to travel, so I’ve been to many of the places where I send my clients; and I’ve probably experienced just about every kind of problem you could possible encounter while traveling. Clients say that they appreciate the calm confidence I display when they are having difficulty and my ability to quickly and efficiently help them deal with situations like lost luggage and missed connections.  

One of the biggest assets I have to offer clients is my ability to listen. When I ask a question that makes you pause, I don’t jump in; I wait for you to process it and formulate a thoughtful answer. Asking the right questions and listening to your answers allows me to hear information that is crucial to planning your ideal vacation. Another quality that helps me plan your best vacation is my ability to make you feel comfortable whether I’m speaking with you on the phone or in person. I know that when I’m going to spend a lot of money on a particular item, I’m nervous, which might prohibit clients from relaxing enough to really articulate their needs and wants regarding a vacation. So I really try to make you feel comfortable by proving myself worthy of your trust.
