Beach in Cozumel, Mexico

Travel has always been about more than destinations for me—it’s about creating experiences that bring joy, connection, and lasting memories. As a certified travel advisor with Academy Travel, I specialize in helping families, couples, and groups design vacations that feel seamless, magical, and tailored to their unique needs.

I bring over a decade of professional experience in higher education, where I’ve worked as a faculty member, dean of students, and higher education leader. In those roles, I cared deeply for students—listening to their goals, supporting their growth, and guiding them through complex decisions. That same care and attention now shape the way I support travelers. Whether you’re planning your first cruise, a return to your favorite theme park, or a milestone celebration in the Caribbean, I approach every trip with the same dedication I’ve always given to my students: ensuring you feel supported, informed, and excited every step of the way.

Areas of Expertise:

• Theme Parks: Family and adults-only vacations to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, and Universal Orlando, with insider tips to make the most of your time and budget.
• Cruises: Memorable sailings with Disney Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean, including multi-generational trips, themed itineraries, and special onboard experiences.
• All-Inclusive Resorts: Relaxing escapes to Mexico, Costa Rica, the Bahamas, and across the Caribbean, with options ranging from family-friendly resorts to adults-only retreats.
• Custom Itineraries: Blending destinations, excursions, and special touches to create vacations that reflect your family’s personality and preferences.

What Makes Me Unique:

• Educator’s Heart: My background in higher education means I’m skilled at listening, guiding, and simplifying complex information—whether that’s comparing cruise lines or navigating passport requirements.
• Family-Centered Approach: As a mom of two, I understand the realities of traveling with kids, especially neurodivergent ones, and the importance of balancing fun with convenience. I also love helping couples and groups carve out adults-only time for relaxation and celebration.
• Detail-Oriented Support: From room configurations for families of five to ensuring legal names match passports, I handle the little details so you can focus on the big picture.
• Trusted Affiliation: As an Independent Travel Consultant with Academy Travel, an Authorized Disney Vacation Planner and respected agency partner for major cruise lines and resorts, I have access to exclusive offers, on-board credits, and insider knowledge to maximize your value.

Why I Love the Travel Industry:

I believe travel is one of the most powerful ways to build connection—whether it’s a child’s first glimpse of Cinderella Castle, a couple’s sunset dinner on the beach, or a family laughing together on a Royal Caribbean ship. Helping clients design those moments is a privilege. I love seeing the excitement in the planning stage, the joy in the journey, and the stories that come after.

My Promise to You:

When you work with me, you’ll never feel like just another booking. I’ll take the time to understand your hopes, your budget, and your travel style. I’ll provide options that fit your vision, keep you informed about promotions and sales, and be there before, during, and after your trip to ensure everything goes smoothly. My goal is simple: to care for you as I’ve always cared for my students—with empathy, expertise, and a commitment to making your journey stress-free and unforgettable.
