I’ve been a travel agent since 1987, and with Vista since 1994.  I started cruising in the ‘70s and have sailed on more than 30 ships.  I love Transatlantic cruises the best – pure relaxation.  In my land-based travels I’ve been to least 15 Caribbean islands, Costa Rica, Australia & New Zealand, Thailand, and many places in Europe and North America.  I think my favorite trips were to Iceland & to Costa Rica.  I love to knit and always look for local yarns when I travel.

I am currently enrolled in the Holland America Academy and working toward 5 star agent status. I have been on more than 10 cruises with Holland America . In May  2008 I took an Alaska cruise on Princess, through the Inside Passage and into Tracy Arm. I enjoy booking independent vacations to France and Italy with a focus on small charming inns and hotels. I have vacationed on most Caribbean islands and in Mexico many times. I specialize in family and couples vacations with an emphasis on unique boutique hotels. I am also knowledgeable in travel to India and the Asian subcontinent and have traveled there many times. I have arranged many corporate groups as well as incentive trips.  

I have been with Vista since 1992 and been in travel business since 1986. I am married and have a daughter, aged 13 and love cruising as a family. I am well versed in Florida theme parks. My two all time favorite trips are Mediterranean Cruises and the Pacific Northwest.  I enjoy history, reading, and antique and handmade jewelry. I do arts and crafts and enjoy fitness related activities, and enjoy volunteering in the community.
