I’ve loved travel for as long as I can remember. My first flight was to Germany as an infant, and I grew up in Alaska where road-trip adventures through Alaska, Western Canada, and the Lower 48 shaped my curiosity about people, culture, and the world. In many ways, it feels like I was destined to become a travel advisor.
I began my career in corporate travel before transitioning into leisure travel, luxury vacations, and custom itinerary design. Since then, I’ve explored the world through luxury all-inclusive resorts, small-ship cruises, premium and luxury ocean cruises, river cruises, curated small-group journeys, and private yacht charters. These firsthand experiences allow me to match clients with the style of travel, destinations, and experiences that best fit their interests.
Travel has changed dramatically over the years, and one of my greatest strengths is helping clients cut through the overwhelming amount of online information. I specialize in creating personalized, elevated travel experiences—the kind of trips people talk about for years.
My planning style is collaborative, detail-focused, and rooted in understanding what matters most to each traveler. I curate luxury vacations, destination weddings, honeymoons, custom European itineraries, multi-generational family trips, corporate and affinity group travel, Caribbean all-inclusive vacations, Sandals and Beaches resort stays, yacht charters, and small-group Croatia itineraries. I also design agency-curated small group journeys—intimate, immersive itineraries for travelers who want high-touch service and unique destination experiences.
Over the years I’ve planned vacations for clients across the globe and am fortunate to lead an incredible team of advisors who share the same passion for travel. Collectively, we've traveled to nearly every continent and have gained deep destination knowledge in the places we send clients most often.

Testimonials I've Received
If you're seeking the peace of mind and confidence that your special day with friends and family will go smoothly and with as little stress as possible, I highly recommend using Dreams and Destination Travel as your planning partner. We were unable to visit the hotel site in advance of our wedding and we also had guests flying into Jamaica from 5 different continents, so having Melinda at Dreams and Destinations as a major part of our planning process ensured that our expectations were exceeded and things went off without a hitch. This is the best decision we could have made in choosing someone to help us make our wedding at Moon Palace Jamaica a memorable event.
