I am excited about sharing in my clients' lives through travel. For every milestone along life’s path, I have created trips that provide lasting memories. From honeymoon to retirement celebration, I’ll help with a vacation experience you won’t soon forget!

I’ve created more than 1,000 individual trips to every continent in the world. I combine my extensive personal travel experiences with the special pricing and perks available from my wide-ranging list of suppliers. I’ve helped hundreds of clients with honeymoons, destination weddings and family reunions. Whether it’s a small group looking to journey through several countries or a couple looking for a romantic getaway, I can find the right match for your wish list and budget.

New destinations for seasoned travelers is a speciality of mine. Many people start exploring the world with the wonders nearby. The Caribbean and Mexico are close at hand and I have an agent who specializes in high-end beach trips. For those who are looking to expand their vacation options, trips to Hawaii or Alaska may come next. Then, England and Europe are added to the mix. And the most intrepid will book an Africa safari or a small-ship cruise to Antarctica.

My agents and I can arrange a variety of services at all budget levels. We offer everything - package tours, cruises, and independent trips – but we don’t do airline tickets alone.  

New York for newcomers is another fun trip! I enjoy helping families who want to take their kids and grandkids to New York for the holidays--I've done that myself.  

Sometimes grandparents want to take the entire family on a cruise over summer vacation or to Disney for a week. We make all of the arrangements so you can spend more time enjoying your family!

I grew up in my family’s music business, which gave me my start and even connected me with my husband of 35 years, Bryan, who was hired as a salesman!  Some of my earliest memories are of doing whatever was possible to help the client.  

Through the years, my husband and I devoted our lives caring for troubled teens. We co-founded Glenhaven Youth Ranch, a residential care facility for at-risk youth. Over the course of 13 years, I was a foster mother to over 100 teens and taught in the ranch's on-site school.

My personal travel experiences led me to a small, home-based travel agency and I quickly realized the power and opportunity of e-commerce. I founded Global Dream Vacations and built it from a one-woman office to a multi-state entity with many, trusted agents.

Military benefits are an option for some. I work with active-duty and veteran’s groups to utilize all the tour and travel discounts available to them. I’d have never guessed that I’d have a son who at age 20 became a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. I have a special desire to help Vets get every perk or benefit possible. 

Where to next? Jamaica is my favorite destination to unwind and relax. Once we arrive in Jamaica, the cell phones go off. We recently took a family heritage trip over two weeks in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. My husband and I did a lot of off-the-beaten path exploring and traced family roots to their birthplace.

My specialty is YOU! I specialize in my clients. I specialize in you. The keystone of how I built my business is customer service.  Those clients that I’ve been working with for 15 years or more, I believe will speak to my desire to make their travels unique.  

I offer a level of attention that clients deserve and have come to expect. I’m in a long-term relationship with my customers and most of my new clients are referrals. I was able to add three experienced agents to my business thanks to all the new clients referred by people I’ve worked with successfully.

My clients are always at the forefront of my mind. I find out what’s on their bucket list and what they dream of doing.  Whether a visit to Italy’s Amalfi Coast or Alaskan cruise, the minute I see a trip that I think they might be interested in, I’ll let them know.
