Family Travel Specialist
To me, clients are family. I treat them as I'd treat my brother or mother if I were planning their vacation. Details matter and can make or break a vacation experience. That attention to detail is something you just can't get by reserving a plane ticket and a hotel room via the Internet. I tailor the vacation to your family's interests and needs, whether that means swimming with dolphins in Grand Cayman or taking a trail ride at a dude ranch in Colorado.
I've traveled extensively, both before and after I started working in the travel industry. I love cruises because they offer such a good value for clients. One price covers almost everything. Plus, you get to experience multiple destinations without the hassle of packing and repacking and checking in and out of hotels.
I believe strongly in keeping up to date on new resorts, ships and technology in the travel industry. To that end, I've earned several travel certifications, including one in Family Travel as well as certificates from AMR, Disney, Universal Studios, Jamaica, Bahamas, Orlando, RIU and Virgin Voyages.
I am very budget-minded, and I work diligently to make sure that my clients get the most value for their vacation dollars and that they stay within their set budget.
I live in North Tampa, Florida. When I'm not traveling or planning a trip for someone, I enjoy spending time at the beach, building sand castles and fishing with my two sons.
To get started planning your family's next exciting and memorable vacation, contact me today!
