A Passion for Travel
After graduating from Arizona State University, I began my career in Event Marketing, where I discovered my natural talent for coordination and planning. In 2017, my life took an unexpected turn when my father sustained a traumatic brain injury from a kite-surfing accident. This challenging period led me to step away from my job to support my family through his remarkable recovery journey. Witnessing his progress during nine months of intensive rehabilitation inspired me to pursue a career in the medical field.
I spent three years as a Patient Coordinator, representing plastic surgeons in Orange County, CA. While I found great reward in helping patients achieve their desires, I realized my true passion lay elsewhere. Taking time to reflect, I planned two unforgettable vacations for my family—to Portugal and the Bahamas. It was during these trips that I discovered my knack for travel planning and the joy it brought to my family and me, especially after a life-altering event.
For as long as I can remember, my parents have been my companions in exploring the world, igniting my passion for travel. I am eternally grateful for their influence and inspiration in the true meaning of, “life is short, take that vacation!” Having visited 22 U.S. states and 25 countries across 5 continents so far, I hope to encourage my clients with that same mindset.
Today, as an Independent Travel Agent, I channel my extensive travel experience and planning skills into crafting exceptional experiences for others. Whether you're seeking a relaxing getaway, an adventurous excursion, or a bespoke itinerary, I am dedicated to making your travel dreams a reality. Let me do the heavy lifting and you do the cocktail sipping. Where to next?
