About Me

Expert Vacation,Cruise, Package and Tour Planner.

The Matterhorn! We LOVE Switzerland trips!
The Matterhorn! We LOVE Switzerland trips!

 I have been planning travel for 20 plus years, and have both the training and personal experience to assure all types of travel go smoothly, on plan and on budget.

My focus is couples/family travel which often includes groups. I love drawing out the details of my clients dreams and turning them into memories.

My clients will tell you the things they love most about me are:

I treat them as if they were family - with honesty, integrity and respect.

I always have their backs if anything goes awry. Ask me about my client who lost $6,000 cash plus jewelry on a flight to Passau and gave up on finding it until, on a hunch, I pestered (maybe bribed) a gate agent to triple check a location and it was FOUND. That is how I treat ALL clients. 

I understand clients needs and limits, whether it is low stress flights (no connections and avoiding certain airports and times), finding a hairdresser in Ireland or making sure their hotel is pet friendly. 

I am very well connected in the travel industry and will do everything in my power to turn dreams into reality. I love what I do and it's a pleasure to plan for my clients!
