Leisure Travel Advisor

Travel is an integral part of my life.  My mother was a Flight Attendant with United Airlines for over 40 years and I was fortunate enough that she started showing me the world from a young age. This sparked my interest and passion for traveling to new and exciting destinations. It also opened my eyes to broader experiences beyond my small New England town. Early world travel allowed me to wholeheartedly embrace opportunities such as living abroad and a global business career in advertising and marketing.

I officially started my travel advisor business in 2022, but have a wealth of trip planning experience and knowledge from decades of personal travel and advising. Since I have traveled my whole life – as a young child, a teen, a college student, a 20s single, a young married couple, a family with infants and young children, a family with teens, a large extended family group – I have a deep understanding of travel expectations and practical experiences for trips at all life stages. Having lived in Munich, Germany for 3 years in my late 20s, my husband and I traveled extensively in Europe. It was fulfilling to act as an experienced tour guide and trip planner for so many of our visitors who were eager to be a part of our exciting adventures.

Through world travel, I have a robust appreciation for so many interesting cultures, historical sights, breathtaking landscapes, bustling cities, nature and animals beyond where I live. Approaching our empty nest years, not only am I looking forward to continuing to broaden my horizons while creating incredible memories, I am excited to take my love of travel to the next level by establishing my own travel agency, CTM: Create Travel Memories. Whether you want to relax on a beach, immerse yourself in a new culture, hike or ski in the mountains, try an exhilarating new activity, or just give your family a great Disney experience, I can’t wait to work with you to plan great trips!

From a moderate budget to a luxury experience, we can "Create Travel Memories" that will fulfill your getaway needs. Whether with my host agencies preferred partners or your own, I can curate options from all sources. So whether you are a wanderlust or a reluctant traveler there is something for you! I am so grateful my mother’s wanderlust career inspired me to see the world and am honored in her memory to pass that on to others. One of my bucket list items is to visit all 7 continents (and I have one left)! What is on your bucket list?! Let me help you get there!
