OWNER / EXECUTIVE ADVISOR
College of Disney Knowledge Graduate | Certified Travel Associate
Hello! I am the owner of Castles and Cruises Travel. Welcome! As a Disney focused travel agent and agency owner, I have planned magical Disney visits and cruises for a countless number of happy guests. Our team of Dream Makers hopes that you will be OUR guest at one of the unforgettable destinations that was inspired by Walt’s heartfelt idea of “a family park where parents and children could have fun – together.”
In the hustle and bustle of a busy household of three children, they all know this rule, “never throw away any Disney memento!” Graduation Mickey ears from our first Disney cruise, conductor certificate from the Magic Kingdom Railroad, Hollywood trading pin from our Backstage Magic Adventure by Disney – each piece is a remembrance of which experience my children were relishing in during a particular vacation. The mementos bring me right back to the magic!
After all, it’s all about the magic and the memories! My Disney memories go back to the 1980’s. I grew up in a Disney family and our Disney vacations are my fondest memories. Sharing the experiences with my children that I experienced with my parents and siblings is an amazing feeling that I just can’t quite put into words. And I am not too proud to admit that after my children are asleep, my 70 year old father and I STILL sneak back out during extra magic hours to ride Space Mountain over and over! Just like when I was a little girl!
Traveling as a family, large group, with a young baby, elderly grandparent, pregnant and even as a college student, I have done it! My time as a Disney focused travel agent coupled with my past work experience with a Fortune 500 company offer a unique set of skills. Ready to travel beyond the magic? My satisfied clients come back to me for other vacation planning services as well. I also plan other specialty destinations such as Hawaii, luxury resorts of the Caribbean, Alaskan cruises and more. Thank you for trusting me to help with your family vacation plans. The resulting experiences and memories are the most precious gifts of all! I look forward to working with you!
