I am passionate about crafting unforgettable experiences tailored to my clients' unique needs. After over 20 years of experience in the childcare field, I decided to shift gears and pursue a new career. The opportunity arose when a couple I knew started their own travel company. They encouraged me to explore the travel world, and after diving into Disney, I found my passion for travel planning, particularly in the cruising industry. Now, I get to blend my love for adventure with my commitment to helping people make memories that last a lifetime.

 

I specialize in working with a wide  variety of travelers - whether you're a retiree seeking a luxurious getaway, a family looking for budget-friendly options, a couple planning a romantic honeymoon or vow renewal, or a group interested in educational or wellness-focused travel, I'm here to help. I'm also particularly fond of booking river and ocean cruises. Living in Birmingham, Alabama, I'm fortunate to be within reach of several major ports, including Mobile, New Orleans, and Florida - making it easy for me to craft amazing cruise itineraries for my clients.

 

What I love most about my job is the deep connection I form with my clients. I make it a priority to really listen to their needs and desires and reflect back to them what I hear to ensure we're on the same page. I want my clients to feel like they're not just working with a travel agent, but with a friend who's genuinely invested in their trip. whether it's booking a dream honeymoon or helping a school group organize a fun yet educational trip, I'm dedicated to making their travel dreams come true.

 

I'm proud of my professional affiliations with organizations like ASTA and CLIA, and I'm committed to continuous learning and development. I stay current with industry trends and have access to exclusive resources and contacts within the travel world. This allows me to offer insider knowledge and create special experiences for my clients. I love diving into cruise line training courses, exploring new destinations, and reading up on the latest travel guides so I can give my clients the most up-to-date and personalized recommendations.

 

Outside of work, I'm all about exploring- whether it's hiking, antiquing, or visiting historic cities. I cherish time spent with my family, which includes my husband, two kids and our collections of pets (including a small chicken farm!)

 

If you're looking for a dedicated, approachable travel agent who truly cares about your travel experience, I'd love to help you plan your next adventure! Reach out today to get started!
