Get to Know Rachel:

As a travel agent, I specialize in Europe and the Caribbean, romance, adventure, business, wellness and group travel. The connections made along this journey are invaluable and I am grateful to be a part of an industry alongside colleagues that share a similar passion. I look forward to connecting with you too!


My love of travel began at a very young age as my parents saw the importance to expose me and my 4 siblings to the many different ways of life across the globe. Though we grew up in a middle-class family we were rich in love and experiences! Once I had my own children, I passed my love of travel on to them including turning their travel sporting events into extended vacations. One of the first destination wedding couples I worked with was my daughter and son in law for their wedding of over 100 guests, so I truly understand what a bride and groom and their wedding guests experience when planning a destination wedding!

Most Memorable Vacation:

Some of our fondest family vacation memories include a trip to California when we drove across the Mojave Dessert to Las Vegas and then hopped on a helicopter to picnic on the Grand Canyon. Another was my son’s first trip to Disney for Christmas when he was just 3 1/2 months old! Like me, his favorite Disney resort to date is the Polynesian for the tropical vibes. Recently my husband and I sailed with a group on a private yacht island hopping in Croatia…that was pretty amazing!

Favorite Destination:

Each trip adds value to my life and I savor that very moment and place in time! If I have to pick a favorite destination I could live on island time every day. If there’s sunshine and a beautiful beach I’m in. Add some adventurous excursions, pampering at the spa, a round of golf, delicious cuisine and I am beyond ecstatic!

My “Why” and Goal for Providing Travel Service to Others:

I have been working in the operations side of healthcare for over 24 years. Having siblings with disabilities I learned first-hand the special attention that is required to ensure everyone enjoys a safe trip that flows with ease. I also know how important it is for everyone to take some time to recharge. My goal is to bring my passion and knowledge of travel to others by designing trips that will be exceptional for them and their loved ones. I am naturally very detail oriented, which helps to take the stress off my clients when considering all the finer elements travel entails. This, along with my MBA skills and joy of hospitality and giving back, allows me to deliver exceptional customer service.
I Never Travel Without:
My phone. It’s my lifeline. Get yourself a backup battery charger if you are like me. It’s a life saver!

Best Travel Souvenir:

A piece of jewelry or Christmas ornament is timeless.

Where I’ve Been and Where I’m Going:

From Switzerland, Germany, Ireland, France, Italy, Austria, Croatia, Mexico, Punta Cana, Jamaica, Aruba, Bermuda, Bahamas and back home across the States I’ve been to many impressive places. I’m excited to explore new countries and revisit those that have become home away from home for me.
Favorite Quote:
“Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones that don’t, and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said it would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.”

Carpe Diem!

Expert Travel Tip:

If traveling in a group plan a few things in advance with everyone and allow some time to be spontaneous or enjoyed alone. Use apps to store passport and important info.
