Cruises, Theme Parks, and More, Oh My!
With a passion for travel deeply rooted in family tradition, I specialize in crafting unforgettable experiences in cruises, adventure travel, LGBT Travel, Universal Studios, and all things Disney. My journey began in 1993 with Certified Vacations in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where I joined the Delta Dream Vacations team, specializing in Disney Vacations.
Driven by a desire for new challenges, I embraced opportunities to expand my horizons. I relocated to Salt Lake City to establish a new call center and train a dedicated team of travel enthusiasts. A year later, I felt the call of the Pacific Northwest and moved to Seattle, where the breathtaking views welcomed me as if coming home.
Throughout my career, I’ve explored the world, whether on my own, with a companion, or leading a group. From traversing Scandinavia on escorted tours to immersing myself in the rich history of Scotland during a six-week adventure, my experiences have shaped my understanding of the diverse tapestry of our planet.
I’ve sailed the pristine waters of Alaska and the Caribbean aboard luxurious cruise ships, cruised across the country on the back of my Harley, and held annual passes to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, and Universal Studios, creating memories that last a lifetime.
My newest passion involves embarking on road trips in my RV discovering the wonders of our national parks.
As Saint Augustine once said, “The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page.” Let me help you read the whole book and create your own unforgettable chapters along the way.
