I have been in the industry for over 30 years, with the past 15 in an travel advisor role. I've been blessed to have visited 80 countries---and to have lived in Ireland for two years while my husband was on a foreign assignment---I've been to London, France and Hawaii more than 10 times each.

I can book experiences all over the world and like to concentrate on soft adventure and African safari. One of my better client experiences recently was in Southern Africa--the entire trip had a focus on great game viewing, elite lodging, food and wine. The details were perfect and the clients loved it; that's my goal with every new client relationship.

My own family has always made travel a priority. I know it's an essential aspect of your life experiences and your context for the world. I take tremendous pride in helping others shape those memories. I pride myself on finding that "wow factor" for my clients.
