Tailor-made Luxury Travel Specialist

I love working with my clients to design the perfect vacations for them based on their wants and needs. My areas of expertise include traveling to Europe over 40 times, being a Master Specialist on all Hawaiian Islands and traveling to 6 continents. Coming back with first-hand knowledge about a destination is very important to me. The best benefit to you is that I look out for you to make sure your vacation time and dollars are well spent. I am available 24/7 when my clients are traveling so they don’t have to wait on hold with an airline or figure out a way to get home if their flights are disrupted brings you great peace of mind. The web is a great tool, but it doesn’t listen to you or care if you book a resort that’s not right for you. I do care and I make sure my clients know I’m there for them before, during and after!
