About Me

My passion for cruising and traveling inspired me to pursue a secondary career in the travel industry. In 1993, Toni (my wife) and I launched our own cruise travel agency, Strictly Cruises & Tours. Over the past 24 years, I have booked cruises and land vacations to a number of destinations. I have personally been on over 70 cruises which have taken me to the Caribbean, Hawaii, Alaska and Europe and also traveled to a number of land based destinations.

I continuously update my professional travel education and have completed a vast number of training programs. I received a Master Cruise Counsellor certification from CLIA and a Commodore certification from Princess Cruise Line. I also have specialty training with NCL, Celebrity, Carnival, Disney and Royal Caribbean. I am also certified in Marriott Hotels. In addition, I constantly research and learn about travel continuously, which keeps me prepared to help plan that dream vacation, family reunion or honeymoon.

I am excited to now be a part of Expedia Cruises in The Villages and ensuring you get the best value is also a passion of mine. As a travel agent in Florida, there are so many corners of the world that I can help you discover including hidden gems in Asia, exhilarating experiences in Central America, or the fascinating culture of French Polynesia.

I have access to the latest special offers and exclusive bonuses you won’t find anywhere else! Whether you choose to book your travel directly on this website or personally through me, I will be available to answer any questions you may have. Please call or email me anytime.

Thank you for visiting my website and I look forward to helping you fulfill your travel dreams.
