From the moment I took my first trip outside my home state as a young girl, something changed in me. It was at that moment I understood the incredible impact traveling has on people's lives, and how it can make us better people and open our minds to new perspectives. Traveling became my passion, and today I'm incredibly blessed to make a living sharing my passion with others, and hopefully igniting the same spark in them that I experienced all those years ago.

As a certified travel advisor, nothing is more exciting to me than sitting down with a client, hearing all their ideas and bucket list items, and then mapping out an itinerary that will ultimately lead to a life-changing experience. There is truly nothing more rewarding to me than building out a vacation and then sending the clients off on their journey. With me, you are earning much more than a travel advisor. You are earning a lifelong supporter who shares every bit of excitement about traveling as you do. I want to be there for you every time you plan on taking a vacation, and I’ll make every trip as easy and effortless as possible.

For me personally, any beach vacation or time near the water is a complete disconnect and recharge for my mind and body. The geography around Hawaii's beaches offer some of the greatest hikes and natural sites in the world as well, so you are getting so much more than a pretty beach if you are willing to explore a bit deeper than just the white sand. For clients interested in beach destinations, I could talk for hours about the possibilities that are available for a trip like that.

Likewise, the magic of Disney is another destination that I find completely life-changing. Disney is so much more than simply fun rides. The people, the entertainment, the food, and all the hidden treasures scattered around each park combine to create a unique culture unto itself, unique and special to just those places. For myself and millions of others, Disney is the ultimate happy place, and I love helping clients create the ultimate Disney experience.

My professional certifications include: College of Disney Knowledge, AMResorts Master Agent, Hawaii Destination Expert, and Hawaii Island, Kauai, Maui Niu, and Oahu specialist Careers on Vacation Certified Travel Advisor. I'm also a firm believer in continuing education and am always working on continuing my training and adding to my skill set to better help clients. I also hold a master's degree in business marketing from Portland State University.

When I'm not in the office, you can usually find me spending time with family and friends, at home scrapbooking, planning my next trip, or hanging out any place with a beautiful beach or waterfall.
