My Story

After more than 25 years curating custom wine gifts and experiences that helped businesses recognize clients, reward employees, and celebrate special occasions, I now bring that same personalized approach to cruise planning.

As a Certified Fora Travel Advisor and WSET-certified wine sommelier, I help travelers find the right cruise for their interests, travel style, and budget.

Travel Style

I love the feeling of unpacking once and letting the world come to me.

Some of my favorite travel memories have been made at sea, watching a sunrise from my balcony, exploring a new port during the day, and ending the evening with great food, wine, and conversation. I tend to gravitate toward longer itineraries that combine beautiful destinations with plenty of time to enjoy the ship itself.

For me, cruising isn't just transportation, it's part of the vacation.
