About Me

It’s been my pleasure to provide thousands of cruise passengers with excellent customer service and great cruise vacation values since 1996.

I have been a proud member of Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) since 1996.

Cruise Lines International Association is a marketing and training organization composed of twenty-four of the major cruise lines serving North America. CLIA was formed in 1975 in response to a need for an association to promote the special benefits of cruising. CLIA exists to educate, train, promote and explain the value, desirability and affordability of the cruise vacation experience.

Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) is the unified voice and leading authority of the global cruise community. As the largest cruise industry trade association with 15 offices globally, CLIA has representation in North and South America, Europe, Asia and Australasia. CLIA's mission is to support policies and practices that foster a safe, secure and healthy cruise ship environment for the more than 25 million passengers who cruise annually, as well as to promote the value, desirability and affordability of the cruise vacation experience. Members are comprised of the world's most prestigious ocean, river and specialty cruise lines; a highly trained and certified travel agent community; and cruise line suppliers and partners, including ports & destinations, ship development, suppliers and business services, committed to the sustained success of the cruise industry.

I am a certified Master Cruise Counsellor, one of the highest levels of accreditation offered by the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA). I am currently enrolled in the Elite Cruise Counsellor (ECC) accreditation program.

The Master (MCC) Cruise Counsellor designation is conferred by Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) upon dedicated travel professionals who have completed an extensive program of classroom training, cruise experience, ship inspections, and a combination of video training and attendance at industry events. A CLIA Certified Cruise Counsellor is your best resource in choosing a perfect vacation.

Travel agencies affiliated with Cruise Lines International Association and travel agents who have earned CLIA's designation of Master Cruise Counsellors are the industry's acknowledged experts in cruise vacations.
