Travel has been a passion throughout my career; but what inspires me most is the people behind the journeys. My path in the travel industry began in travel insurance, where I assisted travelers during some of their most challenging moments. That experience reinforced the importance of thoughtful planning, trusted guidance, and having the right support before, during, and after a trip.

I later managed a travel agency in Central Wisconsin. This is where I discovered my true passion: building meaningful relationships, creating personalized travel experiences, and sharing in the excitement of helping travelers turn their dreams into reality. Whether planning a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, a luxury escape, or a special celebration, I love helping travelers create memories that last a lifetime.

Today, I combine my travel industry experience with my passion for relationship-building as an Account Manager with 1000 Mile Travel Group. I have the privilege of partnering with independent travel advisors, helping them grow successful businesses, elevate the client experience and maximize the opportunities available through Virtuoso and our preferred partners. Travel is constantly evolving. I enjoy mentoring advisors, sharing industry insights and helping them navigate new opportunities so they can better serve their clients.

For me, travel has always been about connection - - people, places, and experiences. It is a privilege to be part of an industry that inspires exploration, creates lasting memories and brings people together.
