Family vacations have been my thing since I was a little girl. I grew up going to Walt Disney World every summer, and I still remember being five years old on Space Mountain, grabbing my dad’s arm and telling him to “pay attention!” as we headed up that first ramp. I’ll never forget the moment a parade performer on Main Street took my hand and pulled me into the show while my parents snapped pictures and cheered from the sidelines.
As I got older, the trips didn’t stop—they just evolved. I kept going back to Walt Disney World through my teens and twenties, then with my husband and our two girls, we added Disneyland and the AMAZING Disney Cruise Line into the mix together: character breakfasts with princesses, dinners with Mickey and friends, tasting our way around EPCOT, and dressing up a bit for a special dinner at Palo on the Disney Wonder. Seeing my daughters light up like I once did? That’s when family travel really sank in for me.
Over time, our adventures grew beyond Disney too. We started exploring places like Alaska, where the “magic” looks a little different but feels just as special—towering glaciers, crisp air, quiet mornings on the ship’s deck, and kids squealing when they spot wildlife in the distance. Standing there with my family, bundled up and watching the world go by, I realized: it doesn’t matter if it’s Main Street USA or an Alaskan fjord—what matters is that you’re together, making memories you’ll talk about for years.
That’s really why I became a family vacation planner. I know what it’s like to be the parent who wants the trip to be amazing but also feels totally overwhelmed by all the options, rules, and “must-dos.” Disney, cruises, Alaska, all-inclusive…there’s so much out there, and you can’t (and shouldn’t!) try to do it all. My job is to come alongside you, get to know your family, and help you figure out what actually fits you—your kids’ ages, your budget, your style, your energy level.
I specialize in Disney vacations, Disney Cruises, Alaska, and beyond—crafting travel that’s truly individual, inspired, and imaginative for your family. As a real mom who’s waited in those lines, handled meltdowns, juggled nap times, and figured out what’s worth the early wake-up (and what’s fine to skip), I design trips that feel uniquely yours.
And here’s the part most people don’t realize: when you book your vacation through me, my planning services don’t cost you anything extra—it’s the same price you’d pay if you booked on your own. The difference is that you have someone in your corner who keeps an eye on promotions, helps with the details, and is there to answer the “Is this normal?” questions along the way. For trips beyond Disney and Alaska, I bring that same level of care and personalization so you always have a go-to person for your family vacations.
If you’re dreaming about Main Street, sailing past glaciers, or just finally taking that next family vacation, think of me as your vacation friend who loves planning as much as you love traveling. You share the dream; I’ll help turn it into a real, stress-free, memory-making vacation—Disney Destinations, Disney Cruises, Alaska, and wherever your family wants to go next.
