My journey in the Travel Industry.

Scuba Diving off the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, YES that's me!!

My journey in the Travel Industry began when I graduated Business School with a Travel & Tourism Major in 1985. Immediately I was immersed in the spectacular world of Travel by becoming an International Tour Director. For a decade I had the joy of taking guests around the world while employed for two deluxe Tour Operators; 1st with Collette Tours and then with Tauck Tours. My specialties included, but were not limited to, Alaska, The Canadian Rockies, Hawaii, Australia, New Zealand & the South Pacific and of course my beloved Deep South of the United States. It was the greatest adventure of my life!

In the mid nineties I came off the "road" moved to a small community outside of New Orleans, went back to college, married and set my feet on the ground. After several years of working in the graphics industry and other jobs, I found myself yearning for my days of travel and missing an industry that is built around having fun, experiencing the world, and exploring the cultures around our beautiful globe.

The idea of traveling 200 days a year was no longer appealing but my expertise in taking people on vacation could easily be translated to planning peoples vacations. While today I do sit at a desk, my years of traveling with thousands of people around the world benefits you. There are things I intrinsically know having done it and been there. The countless hours in airports, on planes, trains, ocean liners, allowed me to encounter & experience all the unexpected situations that arise. This real life experience helps make your vacation as stress free as travel will allow. Not only are your vacation plans taken care of but I can prepare you for what to expect.

The Travel Industry has brought me great joy, excitement and fun,
this is what I want you to experience!
