My Story
Travel enthusiast, mom of two, Houstonian, UT Alum - Hook ‘em Horns!
I’m always looking for the next amazing place to explore, so let me look for you too!
Travel Style
I caught the travel bug at a young age when my parents took my brother and I on Caribbean cruises, road trips to Florida and around Texas, and vacations to Las Vegas, Mexico, and Europe. I’ve always made traveling a priority in my life, even if I didn’t have anyone to come along with me—shout out to all the solo explorers!
I love a busy “trip” full of guided tours and museums, just as much as a relaxing “vacation” with spa days and tropical drinks by a pool. I have planned budget bachelorettes, family cruises, romantic getaways, and city sightseeing explorations. I’m a versatile traveler who just wants to see the world and help you see it too!

Working with our travel advisor was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She communicated exceptionally well throughout the entire planning process and was incredibly easy to work with. She took the time to truly listen to our concerns, preferences, and priorities, and then provided thoughtful recommendations that perfectly fit our needs.
Her knowledge, responsiveness, and attention to detail made planning our trip stress-free and enjoyable. We always felt supported and confident in the decisions we were making thanks to her guidance. I would gladly work with her again for future travel plans and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and attentive travel advisor.

Sandals Resorts Overview and St. Lucia Site Visits
I was fortunate enough to tour all three Sandals properties on my familiarization trip to St. Lucia. Each of these Sandals properties offers their standard all-inclusive amenities, but they also have their own unique standout features that will provide a perfect getaway for any kind of traveler. The common thread that strings these properties together is the friendly staff whose main goal is to make sure that every guest is having their very best vacation.

Spotlight: Grand Velas Cabo Properties
On my first trip to Cabo, I was fortunate enough to experience all three exceptional Grand Velas properties. These three resorts may each have their own unique feel, but all of them provide a true luxury experience that sets the bar high for all-inclusives in Mexico.

A Week in France: From Wine Country to Paris
France has always been one of my favorite destinations—culture, art, gourmet dining, history, fine wine. What’s not to love? You can explore the sprawling, peaceful vineyards of the wine country, and then hop on a train and in just a few hours you can be walking through the metropolitan but yet endlessly charming streets of Paris. It’s truly a traveler’s dream with unlimited things to see and do - one visit will not be enough!

Three of the Best Family Friendly Texas Hill Country Resorts
As a Houstonian and a mom of two toddlers, I am always looking for fun and convenient destinations for family getaways. In my quest to find easy weekend vacations that are just a road trip away, we have stayed at some wonderful Hill Country resorts that offer something for every family member. While these resorts are just a short drive away for many Texans, they can also be a nice reprieve for out of state travelers from the popular busy cities they might be there to explore like Austin and San Antonio.
