Cruises and All-inclusive specialist, Luxury.
I’ve been a travel advisor for three years now, but the truth is… travel has been in my heart much longer than that.Before stepping into this incredible industry, I spent 35 years as a plumber. It was honest, hands-on work, and it taught me a lot about people, patience, service, and solving problems. But after some health challenges and a few eye-opening cruises, I realized it was time to chase a passion that made me feel alive again.And that passion was travel.After experiencing four cruises back-to-back, something clicked. I told my wife, “What if this could be more than a vacation? What if this could be a new beginning?” With her support, I made the leap — and I’ve never looked back. ? How I Serve My ClientsI’m not a transactional travel agent — I’m the guy who treats you like family. I monitor your fare after you book, and if the price drops, I apply the lower rate automatically. I research every destination as if I’m sending my own family. I go above and beyond because I genuinely care about your experience.If it’s not good enough for me or Sue… It’s not good enough for you. ?? My ExpertiseOver the past three years, I’ve earned:NCL PHD Degree — Norwegian’s highest level of trainingGold Tier Status with Virgin VoyagesCertifications with Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Princess, VikingTraining with Disney Destinations, Universal Studios, ETS Faith-Based TravelAnd hands-on experience with multiple luxury all-inclusive resort brandsCruising will always be my first love… But luxury travel has lit a new fire in me. ? My New Luxury FocusRecently, I had the chance to experience luxury all-inclusive resorts in Cancun, Mexico, and it honestly changed the way I see travel.Private check-in. Gourmet dining. Impeccable service. Quiet, elegant spaces that make you feel completely at peace.It was more than a trip — it was a reminder of why I do what I do. And now, I want more of my clients to experience that same level of relaxation and joy. ?? A Traveler First, AlwaysWhen I’m not planning trips, I’m out having my own adventures. One of my most unforgettable? ???? A Greek Isles cruise — a journey I’ll cherish forever. ?? Why I Do ThisTravel gives us something nothing else can: memories, connection, joy, perspective, and moments that stay with us forever.I became a travel advisor to help people feel that — to take the stress out of planning and put the magic back into traveling.Life is short. The world is big. And I’d love to help you see more of it.
Beyond what I could imagine
