With a personal penchant for sea-and-sun getaways, I specialize in booking cruises and beach vacations. As a travel agent, I delight in helping travelers navigate the maze of destination options while removing the stress and time consumption involved in planning those special getaways.

Whether traveling with family or friends, cruises allow you to unpack once and visit multiple destinations. That’s why I choose cruising for my own family getaways. I also plan at least one beach vacation per year, a tradition that started with childhood visits to places such as Florida, New Jersey and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. I am now honored to share that passion for travel while helping clients explore the world.

Digging up the best deals and combing through the minutia of travel planning is a challenge I gladly accept. Tailoring a trip to each person’s needs is a crucial element of booking the perfect adventure. One of my most satisfying bookings as a travel agent was working with a couple who were unsure if they could afford the anniversary trip they truly desired. With careful maneuvering and well-honed insight, I was able to find an alternative travel package that saved them money without compromising fun.

When customizing a cruise package for clients, I dig deep to pinpoint the things each person values when experiencing a new destination. If cruising to the Bahamas, activities can range from relaxing on the beach of Half Moon Cay or exploring the culture and art of Nassau locals. Toss in the onboard activities and smorgasbord of dining options, and there’s something to engage each and every type of explorer.

When not traveling with my own family or helping others fulfill their vacation dreams, I enjoy simple pleasures such as shopping, watching movies and spending time with loved ones in my hometown of Columbia, South Carolina. I also happen to be a board-game enthusiast and rarely turn down a card-game challenge.
