Owner of Touring and Cruises

With nearly 25 years of experience as a professional travel advisor and industry leader, I’ve dedicated my career to connecting people with unforgettable journeys and empowering others to succeed in the world of travel. From crafting tailor-made vacations to coaching new travel agents, my passion lies in both exploration and education.

Over the years, I’ve played a key role in launching two successful travel agencies, experiences that shaped my deep knowledge of the business. Five years ago, I took the leap to open my own travel agency, built around personalized service, industry mentorship, and a flexible approach to work-life balance.

At my agency, we specialize in custom travel planning, offering curated experiences for families, couples, and groups seeking seamless and meaningful travel. But beyond creating dream vacations, I’m dedicated to building a supportive environment for travel advisors looking to grow thriving, independent businesses.

My mission is to foster success in the travel space while encouraging a flexible work environment that honors both ambition and the freedom to prioritize family.
