About

Having explored many corners of the world over the last three decades, I'm passionate about helping my clients discover the world's most memorable places. My business exists to take the headache out of travel planning. I spent nearly 20 years practicing law before pursuing my true calling in the travel industry. What do these professions have in common? Research. Details. Expertise. And let's not discount the value of excellent client communication. With my extensive knowledge and experience researching destinations, I'm here to take the hassle out of planning so you can simply enjoy your travel experience. As owner and lead travel advisor of the Enchanted Valise Travel Agency, I help busy professionals, families and couples plan bucket list trips. My unique expertise lies in: - Cruises (ocean, river and expedition - all brands) - Group travel (including faith-based, destination weddings, and multi-generational travel/family reunions) - All-inclusive resorts such as Sandals in the Caribbean, and ClubMed in Europe - Custom Europe itineraries* (may require a planning fee) - Escorted tours to any destination in the world - Disney vacations (Walt Disney World, Disneyland & Disneyland Paris) - Travel insurance As a lifelong resident of the Pacific Northwest, I am uniquely positioned to advise my clients on visits to Oregon and Washington. Some of my favorite home state destinations are the Oregon Coast, Columbia River Gorge, Mt. Hood, Bend/Central Oregon, and Ashland, home to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. In neighboring Washington, I can assist clients wishing to visit Mount Rainier, Leavenworth, the San Juan Islands, and Spokane. Come visit the Pacific Northwest and I will share my knowledge of this beautiful region with you! My love for Europe grew out of living there for two years. I take pride in planning personalized, immersive vacations for my clients in England, Scotland, Ireland, France, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, and Croatia.
