About Me

Basalt Columns at the Black Sand Beach, Iceland

Since my college days, my passion for travel has only grown stronger. Originally from Wyoming and currently residing in Lincoln, NE, my journey as a travel agent began when I lost my corporate job. I started building my own brand on social media, expanded to travel reviews and tours on YouTube, and eventually becoming a travel agent was the perfect next step.

I have visited 18 countries, explored 46 states in the U.S., and discovered the wonders of 52 National Parks. My expertise lies in U.S. travel, the Caribbean, Mexico, and much of Europe. If there's a destination you have in mind that I haven't yet visited, rest assured it's on my list, and I'll plan your trip with the same enthusiasm as if I were going myself!

I specialize in creating customized trips that hit multiple destinations, perfect for honeymoons, all-inclusive or beach vacations, unique destinations, or bucket-list adventures. I go the extra distance for my clients by assisting not only with accommodations but also with recommendations and potential itineraries, drawing from personal experiences and thorough research. I love booking all-inclusive trips to the Caribbean and Mexico because they guarantee a good time, and I get just as excited about planning multi-destination trips across Europe and North America. Recommending excursions and sharing my experiences with clients is one of my favorite aspects of the job.

I pride myself on being responsive and willing to work odd hours to accommodate my clients' needs. My proactive approach includes rebooking rental cars on short notice to keep clients' schedules on track.

I am registered with all the hotel companies and tour operators I book through, such as ALG, and partnered with Enchanted Travel in Omaha, NE, which holds numerous certifications and awards for their service. My personal travel experiences, both good and bad, have honed my creative planning skills and provided me with a vast knowledge base to answer clients' questions. My background in playing college basketball has given me a network of friends around the world, offering local advice and perspectives.

Outside of travel, I love staying active through hiking, kayaking, paddleboarding, golfing, basketball, biking, and snowboarding. These activities keep me busy and are a big part of my travel adventures.Whether you're looking for a serene escape or an adventurous journey, I'm here to make your travel dreams come true.

Bucket list trip to Banff NP thanks to AOV Travel
Reviewed By Roger - Casper, WY | Traveled to Banff ~ Alberta ~ Canada
Drew was great to work with. He planned a trip for us to Glacier NP, Banff NP, Calgary and Edmonton. He provided us with an awesome itinerary that including what we should see, what we could see and the best times to see them. For example, Lake Louise gets so busy during the day, but we hit it at sunrise and it was beatiful with no traffic. Our hotels in Calgary and Edmonton were great and he helped us get tickets for games and attractions. I would strongly recommend Drew as your travel consultant to make your trip the best.

Drew took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for in my trip: exploring historic cities, relaxing by stunning beaches, and savoring local cuisine. He crafted an itinerary that perfectly balanced adventure and relaxation. If you are considering a trip to Croatia (or anywhere else for that matter), I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Drew.
