Traveling has always been a huge passion of mine. I have planned all of my family vacations all over the United States for over a decade, visiting New York City, Las Vegas, and more. But then we decided to go on our first cruise in 2017, and we were hooked!! We quickly learned that we could have a lot more fun, with a lot less stress, and for less money than our usual vacations!

Over the years, I've helped friends and family plan their vacations. I decided to sign up as an Independent Vacation Specialist in 2019 so I could not only find the best deals for myself, but also for others. Then I purchased my own Dream Vacations franchise in 2021.

I have been planning vacations for well over a decade, traveling all over the world. Let my experience help you. No matter your budget, I can help you to pinch every penny to get the best deal for your vacation, and make sure you have the most fun possible!
