Welcome!

Planning a trip can be overwhelming, even for the most seasoned traveler. I handle the logistics, allowing you to enjoy the excitement of your upcoming adventure without the stress of organizing every detail.

Utilizing my connections in the travel industry, I personalize travel plans based on your preferences, medical needs, accessibility requirements, food allergies, and desired level of investment.

I collaborate closely with hotels and trusted services to maximize your vacation experience. Adding experiences like excursions, private tours, and restaurant reservations elevates every portion of your trip. Through preferred vendor relationships, I can often offer complimentary additions to resort and hotel stays.

Through these in-depth connections in the travel industry, I stay updated on the latest trends, requirements, and opportunities.These relationships often give me access to exclusive reservations and opportunities, giving you a head start on the best travel options. Ultimately, as your travel advisor, I work to customize your journey to meet your needs while elevating your travel experience.

Great travel doesn’t happen by chance—it’s thoughtfully designed.

For a long time, I offered my travel planning services free of charge, relying solely on commissions from select hotels and cruise lines. But crafting a seamless, personalized trip takes time, research, expertise, and care.  I’ve realized that in order to continue offering the level of service my clients deserve, it’s time to charge a professional planning fee. 


Why This Change?

Planning travel isn’t just about booking hotels and cruises. It’s about getting to know you, understanding your preferences, designing an itinerary that fits your lifestyle, and being there to support you every step of the way. Charging a planning fee allows me to:

  • Limit the number of clients I take on

  • Give each trip the time and attention it deserves

  • Focus on each client’s needs rather than worry about where the commission is (or isn’t)

What the Planning Fee Includes:

Your planning fee covers far more than just logistics. It reflects the service, attention, and customization I bring to every trip, including:

  • A one-on-one consultation to understand your travel goals (this has always been and will continue to be complimentary)

  • Expert research and hand-picked recommendations tailored to your style and budget

  • Full itinerary design and seamless booking management

  • Travel documents and reminders

  • Pre-departure check-ins

  • Support while you travel

  • Access to upgrades, perks, and trusted travel partners

Planning Fee Structure:

Fees are based on the complexity of your trip. I’ll always confirm the amount before planning begins.

  • Basic Service: Cruise or Hotel Only:

    Starting at $125

  • Full Service: Flights, Transportation, Accommodations, and Experiences:

    Starting at $225

  • Flights Only:

    Domestic: $25 per passenger

    International: $50 per passenger

Thank You for Your Trust!

If you’ve worked with me before, thank you!  I value the relationships I’ve built and the experiences we’ve created together. This shift allows me to maintain the high-touch, personalized service my clients have come to expect—and deserve.
