Family, Group and Luxury Travel Specialist

Hi! I’m Whitney, a travel advisor born and raised in DFW, Texas, and now living in Fort Worth with my husband and our three wonderful children — Addison, Keller, and Cooper.

My love for travel began at a young age through family vacations to Walt Disney World and along the Florida coast. Over the years, I’ve been blessed to experience a variety of destinations, and that passion continues as I now share the world with my own kids.

We travel regularly as a family — not just for fun, but so my children can learn about different cultures, customs, and ways of life. Whether we’re exploring ancient ruins, snorkeling in tropical waters, or trying new foods in a foreign city, every trip is an opportunity for hands-on learning and unforgettable memories.

I graduated from the University of Oklahoma and had the incredible opportunity to work at Walt Disney World in 2007 through the Disney College Program. That experience deepened my love for Disney and sparked my desire to help others create magical vacations of their own.

I firmly believe you're never too young (or too old!) to travel, grow, and make lasting memories. I'm so excited to use my knowledge, experience, and genuine love of adventure to help plan the perfect getaway for you and your family — wherever in the world you want to go.

Harmony of the Seas: A Vacation Story

Harmony of the Seas: A Vacation Story

<p>From the moment I stepped aboard Royal Caribbean’s Harmony of the Seas, I knew I was about to make memories that would last a lifetime. This ship is truly a floating city — packed with adventure, entertainment, and luxury for all ages.</p>
<p>I stayed in an Oceanview Junior Suite, and it was incredible. The extra space, walk-in closet, upgraded bathroom, and private balcony made such a difference — especially for longer sailings. I loved waking up to the view of the ocean right outside my room, sipping coffee on the balcony while the ship gently cruised toward our next destination.</p>
<p>Every day started with a delicious breakfast — usually at Windjammer Café, where the spread had something for everyone, or sometimes Coastal Kitchen, which I had access to as a suite guest. The service and quality were top-notch, and it really set the tone for each day.</p>
<p>There’s no shortage of adventure on board, and I made sure to try it all — the zip line, the FlowRider surf simulator, and even the Ultimate Abyss, a 10-story dry slide that still gives me chills! When I needed a breather, the Solarium — the adults-only retreat — was the perfect place to recharge with a cocktail and panoramic views.</p>
<p>And for families like mine? Harmony of the Seas is a dream. My kids were obsessed with Splashaway Bay, the vibrant water park designed just for them. There’s a splash zone, mini water slides, and plenty of space for safe water fun. They also loved Adventure Ocean, Royal Caribbean’s incredible kids’ club. It’s totally free and filled with age-appropriate programming — science experiments, themed parties, arts and crafts, and even talent shows. It gave them the freedom to make friends and explore, while giving me a chance to enjoy a little downtime too.</p>
<p>When it came to food, every meal was an adventure in itself. Some of my favorite dining experiences included:  Jamie’s Italian – hearty, homemade-style pasta and warm atmosphere, 150 Central Park – elegant and intimate, perfect for a special night out, Chops Grille – consistently excellent steaks and seafood, El Loco Fresh and, Sorrento’s Pizza for easy, delicious bites anytime.</p>
<p>Evenings on board were just as exciting. We saw Grease: The Musical live (my kids were singing along!), marveled at the AquaTheater’s high-diving show, and enjoyed game shows, karaoke, and live music all around the ship. There were also movies under the stars, glow parties, and interactive experiences that made each night feel like a celebration.</p>
<p>Harmony of the Seas is more than just a cruise — it’s a floating vacation destination that brings families, couples, and solo travelers together through unforgettable experiences. I’ve sailed it, loved it, and would go back in a heartbeat.</p>
<p>If you’re thinking about sailing on Harmony of the Seas, I’d love to help you plan every detail — from your perfect suite to making the most of the onboard fun for both you and your kids. Let’s get started!</p>
