I continue to be captivated by "The Land Down Under" and have journeyed to Australia over 35 times during my career as a professional and experienced travel advisor and continue to visit here in search of new and memorable experiences that I share with my valued clients. I have been an Aussie Specialist since 2001, and Premier Aussie Specialist since 2005. I've planned journeys that ranged from four days to two months and have - personally -experienced all regions of Australia.

Over the past few months, I've embarked on extensive journeys across New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, and Western Australia. My goal was to immerse myself deeply in these regions, igniting fresh insights and a heightened appreciation for the myriad of experiences they offer. This endeavor empowers me to better cater to my clients who are destined for this captivating continent.

I've grown up traveling. In fact, by the age of 24, I had traveled to, explored and experienced all seven of the world's continents! For the past five years, I have been working full-time as a professional travel advisor (except for one year in 2016 where I had the opportunity to live on Australia's sunny and enticing Gold Coast.) In 2017, as a certified Aussie Specialist, I attended Corroboree West (Australia's premier tourism event held every two years) where I met over 100 of Australia's leading tour operators/special interest companies to learn all about the country's many exciting attractions and activities. Straight from Corroboree West, I joined Tourism Australia for a week-long trip to the remote Outback of Western Australia's Kimberley region - where we explored one of Australia's most striking geological landmarks - the famed, multi-million-year-old tiger-striped mountain range - Bungle Bungles.

My goal is to share with you my special personal experiences and exciting travels and together - we'll combine my expertise and your dreams to create your Aussie adventure of a lifetime! Since 2000, I've visited this dynamic continent/country 23 times. I have been recognized as an Aussie Specialist since the designation was created and then further recognized as a Premier Aussie Specialist beginning in 2003. And, for 15 years, I was honored to be recognized in Travel+Leisure's annual publication as an Australian Specialist. I know Australia - from the Outback to the Great Barrier Reef; from Melbourne to Brisbane and Sydney to Adelaide and everywhere in between.

For over 30 years I have created travel for my clients all over the world. But, my passion is the South Pacific - New Zealand and Australia in particular. A certified gold Kiwi Specialist with Tourism New Zealand, I know all of the adrenaline thrills New Zealand has to offer, including breathtaking scuba diving (I am an avid scuba diver myself), zorbing down hillsides, or bungee jumping. Australia is like a second home to me. It's filled with lifelong friends and connections, that I have made during my 47 visits. I have been a Premier Aussie Specialist with Tourism Australia since its inception.

I specialize in Walt Disney World® and Australian vacations. My expertise and experiences in these destinations are invaluable in allowing me to tailor-make vacations to your specific travel wants and needs. So sit back, relax, and let me take care of all the details, so that you can enjoy an unforgettable and stress free vacation. Disney is definitely my first love! I spent a total of two years working at Disney World and Disneyland® Resort. Whether you have kids - or are just a kid at heart, I'd love to share my behind-the-scenes-secrets with you, so you can make the most of your time in the parks rather than waiting in lines all day.

My most recent passion has been planning trips to a different kind of magical destination: Australia. Last year I was named Tourism Australia's first ever U.S. ambassador and have since gone surfing at Bondi Beach, toured wineries in Canberra, and even taken selfies with the Quokkas on Rottnest Island.
