Owner & Lead Advisor

As the owner of my travel agency, I'm passionate about helping others create unforgettable travel experiences. I live in the charming community of Lake Lotawana, Missouri, where I enjoy the peaceful lake life with my wonderful blended family. Being in the travel industry since 1994, opening my own agency in 2017 has been the most rewarding decision. Travel has always been my passion, and now I get to share that enthusiasm by turning my clients' dream vacations into reality.

I've lived in Blue Springs with my wife for 25 years. I have a serious love for sunshine, sandy beaches, and unforgettable escapes — from the turquoise waters of Mexico to the all-inclusive bliss of the Dominican Republic. I'm here to guide you with personalized service that fits your style and budget.

My travel addiction began when my husband won a trip to Thailand many years ago. Since then I have sipped champagne at the top of the Eiffel Tower, ridden a camel at the base of the Pyramids, and cruised through the Panama Canal. I look forward to partnering and sharing my travel passion with you.

Growing up with your mom as a Travel Advisor definitely has its perks! I earned my Bachelors Degree in Hospitality Leadership from Missouri State University. I love All-Inclusive travel in the Caribbean and have recently been inspired by European travel.

My first international vacation was in 2014 for my honeymoon and I have loved to travel ever since! When I'm not traveling, I'm spending time outdoors at the lake, with family and friends, and cheering on the Chiefs.
