I believe time is too precious to waste. That is why I believe in making as many memories as you can in the time you have. I specializes in cruising and theme parks, because while I would love to travel far, I believe traveling often is more important at this stage of my life. During Covid I worked hard and earned my Certificate in Hospitality & Tourism Management.from Florida Atlantic University to go along with my master in buisness administration and masters in educational instruction. Coming from a background in education and continued work in brand strategy, I know the importance of finding the right fit when it comes to who you work and plan with. I work with all family types, couples, and friends looking to take some time to reconnect. I love planning celebratory travel like graduations, bachelor/ bachelorette parties, milestone birthdays with the whole extended family, and anniversary trips. No vacation is to small to be made special. My goal as a travel agent is to make your experience easier and to save you time and energy so you can focus on the fun.
Being disabled and having a medically complex child put life into perspective for me. This life is too short to be stressed, worried and grinding yourself to the bone. Let me help you plan a little fun into your life and give yourself and your family the gift of memories for years to come!

- I worked at Rafiki’s Planet Watch at Disney’s Animal Kingdom as part of the Disney College Program back in 2004. I was going to school to be an elementary school teacher so it took some creative work and an additional semester for me to graduate, but it was one of the best experiences of my life.
