Travel Planner

The magical canals of Venice

Before my career in travel I helped operate our three Raising Cane's Chicken Finger franchises for 15 years.  It was about 8 years ago when I decided that I would shift my focus to something I am truly passionate about... TRAVEL and that included building a career helping my community with planning memorable vacations. 

From a young age, I enjoyed traveling all over the Caribbean and the Rockies with my family and going to Walt Disney World every summer with my grandparents.  In my young adult years I spent a summer in Rome and was hooked.  The culmination of all those travel experiences is what inspired me to become a Travel Planner. I believe that “it is better to see something once than to hear about it a thousand times”.  I am passionate about adding value to my client’s vacations by saving them time and delivering a stress-free, unforgettable vacation.  I like to call myself “a personal shopper for travel”, adding a human element to my client's vacation while planning trips that are packed full of wonderful experiences and lifelong memories.  I am a graduate of Disney’s College of Knowledge and completed training courses on all the major cruise lines including Royal Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise Line, Carnival and Princess as well as many of the major hotel brands and travel suppliers.  My main areas of experience include the Caribbean, Mexico/ Central America, US and Europe and I have gotten my feet wet with Japan and Australia.  I have personally traveled all over the US, Western Canada and vacationed in several tropical destinations including Hawaii, Mexico, Bermuda, Aruba, Cayman Islands, Bahamas, Belize, Antigua, Turks and Caicos, Dominican Republic, Tortola, St. John, St. Martin and St. Thomas.  I have also spent a lot of time in Italy and traveled to France, the UK, Switzerland, Germany, Czech Republic, Greece and Croatia.

One of the things I love about my travel career is helping my clients check destinations off their bucket lists!  My personal bucket list includes any island in the South Pacific, Japan and New Zealand.  

I graduated from Louisiana State University and made my home in Norman, OK in 2005 with my husband, 18 yr old son and 15 yr old daughter.  In my spare time, I enjoy traveling of course, LSU and OU football and watching my kids play sports.
