Cappucino and Croissant in Paris

I started in the travel industry over 48 years ago planning golf trips for my father and his buddies. While I still love planning Golf escapes during our cold winters here in Maine, I’m excited to be part of a new trend just emerging – pickleball getaways. As a pickleball enthusiast myself, I specialize in incorporating this new-found passion in planning adventures for travelers -- whether it be open play and clinics at an All-inclusive Resort, a reserved court on an Ocean or River Cruise, or scheduling open play into a custom itinerary in a foreign destination. I take the time to understand each traveler's style and preference, then tailor every detail for a seamless, immersive and stress-free experience.

My years of travel experience and knowledge gained from living life, combined with my experience working as a travel agency manager, group tour manager, travel agent and educator, I bring a deep passion for the excitement and self-discovery that travel can bring. Through exceptional service and detailed planning, I help my clients have memorable Journeys, whether it be Leisurely floating in a secret river in an ancient cave in Mexico, walking a sandy beach in the Caribbean, Exploring medieval cities like Siena, Italy, or Adventuring into rain forests in Puerto Rico or Costa Rica. The educator part of me wants to hear about my client’s trip, what they experienced and what they discovered about themselves. Travel is not just about vacationing or seeing something unique. It’s about learning about other cultures and ourselves, how we fit in the world, and how other cultures fit into the world – it’s about growing as a human being.
