Travel Advisor

Specializing in: Walt Disney World, Disney Cruise Line

I am a married mom of two who is passionate about helping families create meaningful travel memories. Travel has allowed me to give my children experiences I didn’t have growing up, and that perspective drives my commitment to helping other families enjoy the same opportunities.

My travel journey began when my husband and I eloped in the mountains of Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. Since then, I’ve enjoyed incorporating both fun and learning into our travels, making lasting memories in destinations such as Myrtle Beach and Charleston, South Carolina; Statesville, North Carolina; New York City; Memphis, Tennessee including Graceland and the Lorraine Motel; Boston, Massachusetts; Key West, Florida; Denver, Colorado; and Walt Disney World. Our family has also sailed aboard the Disney Dream to the Bahamas and Castaway Cay.

My favorite destinations are Walt Disney World, often called The Most Magical Place on Earth, and Denver, Colorado’s Mile High City.

I specialize in Disney travel but am happy to assist with planning all types of vacations. My goal is to provide a seamless planning experience and help turn your travel plans into unforgettable memories.
