About Me

“Once the travel bug bites there is no known antidote and I know that I shall be happily infected for the rest of my life” Michael Palin

The travel bug bit me long ago, igniting a deep passion for exploration. This passion led me to complete a 2-year Travel and Tourism program, where I successfully obtained my diploma. Additionally, I am a registered TICO advisor (Travel Industry Council of Ontario), ensuring that your information and travel plans are always secure and protected when booking with me.

My journey as a Travel Advisor began in 2011 with Flight Centre, where I started as a Travel Consultant. Through dedication and hard work, I quickly progressed into a leadership role, which I held for several years. After the birth of my daughters, I transitioned into a Telecommuter position, working from home long before it became a common practice.

I am grateful for the opportunity to continue doing what I love in an industry that ignites my passion. After spending a decade with one of the most reputable travel providers in Canada and worldwide, I have ventured out on my own as an independent contractor, partnering with Envoyage. Over the few years I have grown my business and assembled a dream team of travel professionals to assist you with your travel needs. We are Your Vacation Gurus!

With my extensive expertise and diverse knowledge in various areas of the industry, I can provide you with insightful recommendations and knowledge tailored to your specific travel needs. I am a certified Disney specialist, having completed the Disney College of Knowledge, and I also have experience representing Canada at the Canadian Pavilion in Epcot's World Showcase during a one-year internship. Furthermore, I specialize in cruising and various resort brands worldwide, with extensive personal travel experiences throughout Europe, the United Kingdom, USA, and the Caribbean islands.

Whether you seek a romantic weekend getaway, an unforgettable family vacation, an adventurous tour or Safari, a Mediterranean cruise, or simply a hotel and car reservation, I am here to assist you. I will work closely with you and our trusted travel partners to customize your next vacation, ensuring a truly memorable experience from start to finish.

Your next adventure awaits, so pack your bags and let's embark on this journey together. I promise, you won't be disappointed.
