I grew up in the Chicago suburbs and at a young age I had a fascination with travel to exotic lands.  My goal was to work at O'hare Airport.  At age 20, that came to fruition.  My passion for travel and sending people on 'trips of a lifetime' endures to this day.  With my love of travel, I custom design intricate international trips & send clients on journeys to stunning & historically rich destinations.

I have established travel expertise to Europe, Australia, New Zealand & the South Pacific.  In addition, I am a highly recognized Luxury, River & Expedition Cruise specialist as well as an Africa Travel specialist.
