I have been working in the travel industry for more than 20 years. I enjoy partnering with customers to plan memorable vacations all over the world. I have focused my training to learn about popular European destinations including Italy, England, Ireland, France and Germany. I also have experience in planning trips to Australia and New Zealand. These exciting destinations have captured my interest and I work closely with my clients to develop an unforgettable vacation experience.


I am a Certified Travel Associate and Certified Luxury Specialist both earned from the Travel Institute of America.  I have furthered my knowledge as a graduate of the Travel Leaders Certified Travel Specialist and Luxury Specialist Programs.  European Culture and Heritage was a large part of my course work. I also specialized in Luxury and All-inclusive travel. I have completed my certification with Viking Cruises and Globus Journeys.


I have taken several Avalon Waterways River Cruises on six of the major rivers in Europe.  I truly believe this is the best way to experience the cities of Europe.  The boat docks in the center of the cities and you are free to explore on your own or with an included excursion.  The ever growing popularity of river cruising is a great way for travelers to get an intimate experience of the countries/cities along the major waterways in Europe, Egypt, Asia and South America.


My leisure interests and course training focus have also included the cruise industry and all-inclusive travel. I am a Commodore Specialist with Princess Cruise Lines. I am also a Disney Travel Specialist.


I have personally traveled through several countries in Europe, throughout Mexico and the Caribbean. I also enjoy traveling to Las Vegas and the US National Parks.

Foreign travel made easy!
Kim was truly awesome to work with on the planning of two overseas trips that my family and I recently took. These trips involved SE Asia and Scotland; two completely different areas of the world. Kim helped with Visas, flights, places to stay, guides, and activities in these locations. She was instrumental in planning for the great experiences we had in both locations. I definitely will be using Kim again and again for all of my future travels. Thank you so much Kim!

Alaskan fishing trip
Kim did an excellent job with my Alaskan fishing adventure. There are so many fishing lodges on the internet, I would have never found this lodge on my own. She did an outstanding job making all the arrangements and keeping me updated on flight changes. The accommodations, staff, food and beverages and fishing were all top notch. The Anvik River Lodge is an excellent destination.
