The best way to start is to contact me through email or call to schedule a planning conversation. I learn about your travel style, preferences, budget, and goals, then create personalized recommendations. Once you’re happy with the plan, I handle the bookings and details—so you don’t have to.

In most cases, no. Commissions for cruises, resorts, hotels, and many tours are already built into the price—whether you use a travel advisor or not. That means you’re often paying the same price, but with added support, guidance, and access to exclusive perks. As far as "planning fees go", this can vary depending on the complexity of your trip. Many vacations (like cruises and packaged trips) do not require a fee, while more customized itineraries may. I’ll always be transparent about this upfront.

You start by sharing your travel dates, budget, interests, and any must-see destinations. We research thoroughly, then create a personalized itinerary with hotel recommendations, transportation details, and curated activities. You review, suggest changes, and we refine until it's perfect for your trip.

I can help you plan trips anywhere in the world, including Europe, Asia, tropical islands, and beyond. Whether it's a honeymoon in Bali, an all-inclusive in Mexico, or a cultural tour of Italy, I can help have you design your ideal experience anywhere. I have been to 42 countries and love helping people create memories for a lifetime!

Absolutely. I work within your budget and find great value without compromising on experience. I know how to identify affordable hotels, strategic transportation, and unique activities that don't break the bank. You might also want to consider my 1 hour consultation service about using points and miles to travel.

Honestly, it’s best to start as early as possible—especially for cruises, Europe, and peak travel seasons. I used to think that waiting was best, but I have since learned that this generally is not the greatest strategy, especially when looking at flights (and remember, I show you how to make sure you're getting the best price). That said, I am always happy to help with last-minute trips as well!

Working with a travel advisor means you don’t have to spend hours researching or worrying about missing important details. I help you:

- Find the best options for your needs

- Access exclusive promotions and perks that you might not be able to find yourself

- Monitor your flights to watch for price decreases

- Have support before, during, and after your trip

Absolutely! Whether you’ve booked part of your trip or just have a few ideas, I can step in to refine your plans, add value, and help ensure everything runs smoothly.

One of my specialties is helping clients maximize travel through airline miles and credit card rewards—especially with SkyMiles.

I don’t just help you plan your trip—I help you understand how to use the points and benefits you may already have (or could be earning) to make your travel more affordable and more elevated.

From choosing the right card to redeeming miles strategically, I offer a service (for a small fee) to help you get more value out of every trip.
