About Ports and Beyond Travel

I started Ports and Beyond Travel because I've always loved traveling, especially cruising, and I genuinely enjoy the planning that goes along with it. Over the years, I've planned trips for myself, family and friends, and I realized how much I enjoy helping others turn an idea into a vacation they're excited about.

What I love most is taking the stress and confusion out of the process. There are so many choices when planning a trip, and it can quickly become overwhelming. I enjoy getting to know what someone wants from their vacation, narrowing down the options and helping with all those little details that can make a big difference.

For me, it's not just about booking a trip. It's about helping people create memories, experience new places and truly enjoy their journey—from the ports and beyond.

I'm especially passionate about cruise vacations and tropical getaways, but I love helping clients plan all kinds of travel. Cruising is a personal favorite because every ship and itinerary offers something different—from relaxing days at sea to exploring new ports and experiencing different cultures.

My own travel experience helps me understand the little details that can make a big difference, such as choosing the right ship, cabin location, itinerary, dining options and excursions. I also enjoy planning all-inclusive resorts, family vacations, couples getaways and bucket-list trips.

What makes me great at planning them is that I treat each vacation as personal. I listen to what you're looking for, do the research and help create a trip that fits you, rather than simply offering the same vacation to everyone.
