I started in the travel industry back in 2003, earning the nickname “the Disney lady.” Disney will always have my heart (you’ll still find me at Walt Disney World 3–4 times a year, hunting hidden Mickeys and indulging in Dole Whips), but my true passion lies in romance travel. I love working with couples to plan destination weddings, honeymoons, and once-in-a-lifetime getaways that become part of their love story.
Ireland also holds a special place in my heart—I firmly believe there’s no problem a hike through the Gap of Dunloe (followed by a pint at Kate Kearney’s Cottage) can’t solve.
Over the years, my travels have taken me across the Caribbean, Mexico, England, Ireland, Italy, the Czech Republic, Alaska, Hawaii, and beyond—and the list is always growing. Every new journey allows me to bring firsthand knowledge and trusted connections back to my clients, helping me design seamless, stress-free, and unforgettable experiences.
Who we are and what we do...
At Paradise Found Travel, we design vacations that feel as unique as the people taking them. Whether it’s a sun-soaked family adventure or a once-in-a-lifetime romantic escape, we create custom itineraries that go beyond “off the shelf” travel.
Our specialties include the Caribbean, Mexico, Ireland, and Italy—but if your dream destination is further afield, we’ll help you get there too. From our very first “nice to meet you” through your “welcome home,” we’re with you every step of the way, offering advice, support, and stress-free planning.
Our travel designers stay on top of trends and insider knowledge through ongoing training, supplier connections, and, of course, hands-on travel (our favorite kind of homework!). This means when you work with us, you’re getting more than a trip—you’re getting expertise, relationships, and peace of mind.
We’re here to help you find your paradise—wherever in the world that may be.

Why use a travel professional?
Sure, booking a trip online at 11:00 PM in your pajamas feels easy. But what happens when the photos don’t match reality, your flight gets canceled, or you find out the hotel “accidentally” gave away your room? (Hint: online sites don’t usually step in to fix it—but we do.)
Here’s what you get with us that you won’t get with an online booking engine:
-
Real support: If things go sideways, we’re your advocate. No endless call center hold music.
-
Time savings: The average traveler visits 30+ sites before booking. We cut through the noise with expert advice and firsthand experience.
-
Insider access: We have relationships with resorts and suppliers, so you won’t get “walked” to another hotel, and we often secure upgrades, perks, or availability that the internet can’t.
-
Personalized planning: We design vacations around you, not generic packages.
Bottom line: Online sites give you a confirmation number. We give you peace of mind, expertise, and a vacation that actually delivers what you dreamed.
