All About Me

Hi, my name is Michelle and I would love to help you plan your next vacation.  Truly, I love to plan!  I live by to-do checklists, packing spreadsheets, comparison grids…planning a trip is just as much fun for me as taking it. 

Professionally, I’ve worked as an event planner, creating memorable experiences for groups – and now I am privileged to craft unique and magical vacations for clients.  I put the same care and attention into planning each trip as if it was my own.

My love for travel grew throughout my childhood.  I visited Walt Disney World at the age of 8 and remember feeling like a princess when dining in Cinderella’s Castle – back when it was King Stefan’s Banquet Hall! 

Though my first glimpse of France was the Epcot version, I visited the true Paris when I was 12.  That’s where my grandmother was born, and it was a thrill to see her hometown and experience a different culture:  the sounds, the smells, the beautiful architecture.  After a dream vacation to Australia when I was 14, I was completely hooked on travel; there are so many wonderful places to explore, with new activities and delicious food.

Now my husband and I have two children of our own, and we are spreading the travel bug to them.  It’s heart-warming to see their eyes light up as they experience everything each location has to offer.  Favorite trips include cruises, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal, and of course, Disney!  Are you ready for a special adventure of your own? 

Reach out and we can chat about your preferences so I can customize options and take care of all the logistics while you just focus on fun!  Whether it’s a chill beach vacation, family theme park extravaganza, romantic couples trip, or overseas journey, it would be my pleasure to guide you through the process, monitor promotions to save money, and make your travel dreams come true.  Let the planning begin!

Let’s get started on your dream vacation!
