Advisor Specializing in Alaska and Cruises

I have been in the leisure travel industry since 2014 and corporate travel industry for over 30 years.  I own Emerald Breeze Travel based in Fort Worth, Texas. I travel yearly to several destinations. I enjoy cruising and also flying to a destination and doing a land tour.

I have planned memorable vacations for clients traveling to Alaska, Hawaii, Florida, Las Vegas, New York City, Italy, Germany, Costa Rica,  the Caribbean, ocean cruising,  river cruising through Budapest, Austria, Netherlands, Germany, France and Switzerland.  

I truly enjoy helping clients plan their vacation from beginning to end.  I listen to the client as he/she describes the perfect vacation.  If you're not sure where you'd like to go, I can offer suggestions based on your likes and dislikes.  The world is plentiful of places to go and see - a bucket list of choices.  See the world and check off the list. The palette is unlimited as to where to go on vacation.

With Cruise Line International Association (CLIA) I have earned Certified Cruise Counsellor (CCC) in August 2018 and have earned Accredited Cruise Counsellor (ACC) in January 2024.

I have earned multiple travel supplier certifications and continue to maintain updated credentials.

Denali - Athabascan for “The Great One”

Alaska Expert

<p>Have you been to the Last Frontier? If not, I highly recommend it. Plan at least seven days sightseeing but certainly stay longer if you are able to. </p>
<p>I have been every year since 2021. Alaska does not disappoint. There are so many places to see and many activities and adventures to participate in. Fly into Fairbanks, or Anchorage, rent a vehicle and let the adventure begin. There are very few highways in Alaska to drive on and many roads that'll lead you to something beautiful. You can also hop on the Alaska Railroad for a half day or all day trip between Anchorage, Seward, Whittier, Talkeetna, or Fairbanks. Activities in store for you are some of the following: kayaking, hiking, flightseeing, skiing, northern lights, Arctic Circle, snowshoeing, snow machining, camping, fishing, gold panning, wildlife viewing, whale watching, and so much more. Alaska is definitely a photographers paradise!</p>
<p>If you'd rather see Alaska by cruising, you can start your cruise from Seattle, San Francisco, Vancouver (Canada), Seward (Alaska), or Whittier (Alaska). Cruising the Inside Passage is beautiful. The towns (ports of call) are not reachable by car as the highway doesn't connect to Southeast Alaska. I can recommend some great cruise lines.</p>
<p>For a once in a lifetime experience, let me recommend a flightseeing trip to Denali. This is an experience you'll never forget. The spectacular views you'll encounter is amazing. Have your camera fully charged and get ready to take beautiful videos and pictures. If you have the extra funds, the glacier landing is really worth it!</p>
<p>Allow me to help you plan your Alaskan Adventure. I'd love to hear about your adventures after your fabulous trip!</p>
