Travel has always been one of my great joys. I’ve explored more than 16 countries by both land and sea, and now I bring that same curiosity and passion to guiding others. Whether it’s a land tour or a shore excursion between Seward and Fairbanks, Alaska, I focus on every detail so guests can relax and truly enjoy the journey.

For more than 40 years, I’ve dedicated my career to making people feel welcome, comfortable, and cared for. My background as a cosmetologist, educator, and director in the salon and spa industry taught me the heart of great service—understanding people and creating experiences that stay with them.

I hold an Adult Education Credential in California (since 2008) along with Certificates in Adult Education from UCSD and SDSU, plus a Certificate in Business Management; Leadership & Management.

Teaching and leading adults helped me fine-tune my communication and organization skills—both essential in creating smooth, enjoyable tours for guests from all walks of life.

I love sharing stories that help guests connect with the places we visit and the people who call them home. My goal is simple: to create tours that feel personal, engaging, and unforgettable.
