About Me

Hi, I'm Alicia, a mom of two who loves to travel with my family and friends!  I would love to plan your next adventure to a Disney Theme Park, Universal Studios, a beautiful All-Inclusive Resort, or cruise. 

 

I am a lifelong traveler and theme park fan and share my love between Disney and Universal.  My family began going to Disneyland and Walt Disney World when I was a young child, and as an adult I discovered the joys of the Universal theme parks on both coasts.  I love the thrill I get every time I walk into one of these parks - I am a kid again and that never grows old!

 

I'm thrilled to be working with Pixie Vacations as a travel planner and I take tremendous joy in offering my clients concierge-level planning and experience.  Additionally, I am always monitoring promotions to ensure my clients are receiving the best possible value for their vacation dollars.

 

Clients needs vary greatly and part of what I love is finding the right trip for each of my clients.  My own personal travel helps inform my choices for them and has given me insight into various locales which I love to pass on to them.  I can't wait to make you my newest client!

Stress-free pre-planned family trip to Mexico
Reviewed By Jason - Oakland, CA | Traveled to Puerto Vallarta ~ Jalisco ~ Mexico
Alicia has a warm, personable approach that instantly put me at ease and made planning my trip feel effortless. I can’t say enough about how wonderful the experience was. From the moment we first connected, it was clear that she genuinely cared about my travel needs.

Alicia took the time to get to know my preferences, asked thoughtful questions, and offered personalized suggestions that perfectly matched what I was looking for.

Thanks to Alicia's careful planning, my trip was smooth, stress-free, and everything I could have hoped for. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a travel agent who goes above and beyond to provide a personal, friendly, and professional service

Alicia has helped us with several trips, both for Disney and Universal Parks and our latest Disney Cruise. Alicia was available for us at all times, including while she was on vacation to make sure we were taken care of and our vacations went off without a hitch. Very personal and professional service.
