As a Personal Travel Planner I enjoy meeting new people and helping them make their dream vacations become a reality. My goal is to provide you with the best service that will allow you to sit back relax and enjoy your vacation. To provide you with an itinerary for an incredible vacation filled with a lifetime of memories.

I am a wife of 20+ years to my best friend and a mother to a beautiful teenage girl. My love for travel began when I married over 20 years ago and continues as I share the love with my daughter. I have enjoyed the planning process (to me is just half the fun) as well as the actual travel experience, it’s important to me that the families I help get to enjoy the same experience.

You have my dedication to the planning process so that you receive everything you intended and more. My promise to you is that I will treat your vacation as if it were my own, with the same enthusiasm and excitement and customize it to fit your family’s idea of a dream vacation!

I can help you with your next getaway! Whether it is on one of the many wonderful Cruise Lines, an All-Inclusive Resorts, a Magical Disney vacation, creating a second Honeymoon or special Anniversary with the one you love, and so so much more! 

I’m a family travel specialist. I help my clients with families choose the best destination so that all members, young or young at heart, can have a wonderful time on vacation.

A challenging thing about planning family vacations is choosing the best destination, accommodations, activities, and restaurants that appeal to everyone. I enjoy this challenge! It's all about bringing families together, creating lifetime memories and the light of wonder in a child's eye as they take in new experiences. 

I’d love to offer suggestions for great places for your family to travel that are eye-opening and exciting for everyone. I’ll help you sort out all the details along the way.

Many people ask me, “What is your favorite vacation?”  I can answer very quickly! My family loves cruising! It is relaxing, exhilarating, cultural, cost effective, and the best time for our family to reconnect and make memories.  We live close to the Galveston Port which is home to several Carnival Cruise Ships with a 4th being added in 2021 and two Royal Caribbean ships who will soon be bringing in one of their Oasis Class ships which are some of the largest in the industry.   Galveston is also home to the Disney Wonder from November to January most seasons. We have had the opportunity to sail on almost all of them! 

Cruising has fast become one of the most popular vacation options in travel over the past 10 years. There are many ports throughout the world so it allows one to explore many cultures in one vacation.  It also provides fun for the entire family from the little ones to the seniors! I enjoy working with my clients to match the perfect cruising option for their family. It is so much more than just picking a place or ship.  Different cruise lines offer different types of vacations and amenities onboard. Each has their unique spin on cruising so it is important for me to customize my clients’ vacations to their needs.  

One of my favorite aspects of cruising is the staff.  The culinary staff takes such pride in their work as they create many wonderful meals.  Some meals are themed to a specific night, or create dishes that are specific to the port they are in that particular day. They even cater to many dietary needs.   It is amazing and the best part is you can try it all!  

In addition, the ships Cruise Directors create fun activities for the whole family.  Trivia games, bingo, wine tasting, behind the scenes tours and so much more are offered throughout your cruise.  Wait – there is more! World class spas to relax and rejuvenate and some ships have activities on board like water coasters, go karts, outdoor movies, rock climbing walls and laser tag.   I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the entertainment. Broadway style shows with fantastic performances like Jersey Boys, and Mama Mia can be seen on most ships. Did I mention – they are included! 

I would love to share my passion for cruising with you and create a wonderful vacation for your family or friends or even a whole group! I am a specialist with all cruise lines, including Carnival Cruises, Royal Caribbean International Cruise Line, Norwegian Cruise Line, Disney Cruise Line, Princess Cruise Line, and more.  You can expect my expertise, diligence and care when choosing me as your Travel Advisor. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

If you are like me, once I plan my vacation I just want to enjoy it. I want it to fit my budget, include everything I need with no surprises and worries about budgeting for meals, snacks, and beverages! All-Inclusive resort vacations can be the perfect match for many travelers.  They also charge a fixed price that includes most or all items offered.  At a minimum, most inclusive resorts include food, drinks (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic), lodging, non-motorized water-sports activates, entertainment, and shopping, with the advantage of never leaving the resort after arriving.   

Some all-inclusive resorts are designed for specific vacation interests. For example, certain resorts cater to adults only. There are also wonderful all-inclusive resorts for families, with facilities like craft centers, games rooms, and water parks to keep children of all ages entertained. All-inclusive resorts are also very popular locations for destination weddings.  

These days, there are some amazing and luxurious all-inclusive options in Mexico, Jamaica, Costa Rica, and many other areas of the Caribbean. With multiple restaurants, top shelf alcohol, concierge and butler service, large rooms, entertainment, and activities galore, expectations can be exceeded if you pick the right resort and destination.  So sit back, relax, and indulge in your vacation and let me help you decide on which resort is best for your vacation!
