Senior Travel Advisor, Mentor, & Social Media Specialist

Travel Advisor since 2017


There is no doubt in my mind that I was born to travel! At the age of 19, I fulfilled my childhood dream of becoming a flight attendant... and it was the BEST! Seeing new cities, exploring new hotels, and meeting new people everyday was a dream come true.

After 9/11 I became a Registered Nurse, and when I wasn't working, I enjoyed traveling to different all-inclusive locations with my husband, Tom. I've been to Aruba, Punta Cana, Cabo, Riviera Maya/Cancun, Nassau, Antigua, Roatan, Grand Turk, Cozumel, Negril & Ocho Rios areas in Jamaica, Turks & Caicos, etc.

Once we had our daughter, my passion quickly turned to Walt Disney World.
There is a special feeling you get walking down Main Street, whether it is your
1st trip or your 30th. As a Travel Advisor, I have the privilege of assisting
other families with planning their Magical vacation while passing along my tips
and tricks. Our children are now 10 & 13, and have been to Disney 2-3 times
each year since they were born, so I'd consider myself very well versed in
planning Disney Vacations.

I also specialize in Universal Orlando Resort Vacations, and I have a special place in my heart for Universal. A great long weekend trip to Hard Rock Hotel with a few park days makes my entire family so happy. And if Volcano Bay is open, you'll find me there! I crave frozen Butterbeer all year long, so I try and not go too long between trips! I like to go around every 6 months to stay current and
updated.

Since Covid, I've been planning and taking more all-inclusive trips and cruises with and without my family. Since 2020, I have sailed on Disney Cruise Line, Carnival Mardi Gras ship and Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas. I'm nearing the Silver Certified Sandals Specialist recognition with Sandals and Beaches Resorts. Sandals Royal Plantation, Sandals Ochi, Sandals Emerald Bay, and Sandals Antigua are all locations I've traveled to within the last 3 years. I recently traveled to all 3 Beaches properties as well: Beaches Turks & Caicos, Beaches Ocho Rios, & Beaches Negril. I’m also part of Mexperts since 2022 and love the Riviera Cancun area!

I've worked in the travel industry for nearly 7 years, and I enjoy planning each
vacation as I would plan my own. One of my main goals is to take the stress out of my clients planning, so that they can focus on making memories with their loved ones!
