I started my career as a travel professional in 2019 amidst the challenges of the pandemic. It was both the best and worst time to enter the industry. Business was nearly at a standstill, and so many changes were happening. I consider all the extra education and training required during this time very beneficial, and I've learned to pay close attention to detail.
With my own travel agency and support from my Host Agency, I proudly hold certifications from Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), the American Society of Travel Advisors (ASTA), and Signature Travel Network.
Traveling has gifted me priceless memories and a great appreciation for diverse cultures, with culinary adventures being my favorite! Beyond a career, it's my passion to craft unforgettable journeys for others. Whether it's cruises, tours, or bespoke adventures, I'm dedicated to being your personal travel concierge, ensuring every trip is a lifelong memory in the making.
