Adventure & Active Travel Specialist

Welcome! I’m thrilled you’ve found your way here, because your next unforgettable journey starts now. As a Certified Leisure Travel Specialist and Accredited Cruise Counselor with years of hands-on experience, I don’t just plan trips; I create extraordinary, tailor-made adventures that reflect your unique dreams and desires.

Have you ever wanted to explore Iceland’s stunning landscapes, relax on a sun-drenched Caribbean beach, experience the wilds of Alaska, wander through Scotland’s enchanting castles, or savor the flavors of Ireland and New Zealand, but felt overwhelmed by the details or unsure where to start? Because of my expertise and passion for travel, I design seamless, personalized journeys so you can finally have the adventure, relaxation, and memories you’ve always imagined.

Think of me as your personal travel architect. I take the time to get to know you- your interests, style, must-haves, and wish list. Every itinerary I create is meticulously crafted just for you, whether you’re seeking a solo escape, a romantic getaway, a family adventure, or a group celebration. I believe travel should be immersive and meaningful, not just a checklist of places to see but a collection of moments that inspire, connect, and transform.

As an Accredited Cruise Counselor, I bring insider knowledge of the world’s best cruise lines, ships, and destinations. Whether you crave the elegance of a European river cruise, the excitement of an Alaskan expedition, or the luxury of a Caribbean voyage, I’ll match you with the perfect cruise experience, complete with exclusive perks and seamless planning.

But my commitment to you goes far beyond booking. I’m your dedicated travel ally from our first conversation until you return home with a suitcase full of stories. You’ll enjoy:

  • Personalized recommendations based on my extensive travel experience and up-to-the-minute industry insights
  • Complete trip management: from flights and accommodations to dining, tours, and special requests
  • 24/7 support while you travel so that you can explore with total peace of mind
  • Post-trip follow-up to celebrate your journey and start dreaming about what’s next

I specialize in some of the world’s most captivating destinations: Iceland, the Caribbean, Alaska, Scotland, Ireland, New Zealand, and beyond. My global connections mean you’ll enjoy VIP treatment, insider tips, and the best value every step of the way.

Why settle for ordinary when you can have a travel experience designed just for you? Let’s transform your travel dreams into vivid reality. I’m here to inspire you, guide you, and handle every detail so you can focus on what truly matters: making memories that last a lifetime.

The world is waiting. Let’s explore it together with style, comfort, and confidence.

Contact me today, and let’s start planning your next remarkable adventure. Share your aspirations, and watch as I turn them into an itinerary that exceeds your expectations.
