Personalized Vacation Planning to Disney and Worldwide Destinations
Travel DESIGNED FOR YOU
Travel planning should feel exciting, not overwhelming.
I work with busy professionals, couples and families to provide personalized and seamless vacation planning. Every itinerary is thoughtfully designed around you. Your travel style, priorities and the experiences that matter most.
Whether you’re planning a family getaway, a milestone celebration or a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, you can expect thoughtful planning, honest advice and a travel experience that feels effortless, personalized and memorable.
I have spent over 20 years visiting Disney with my family, cruising on many well known cruise lines and traveling the US and internationally. I am a huge national park fan that also appreciates a 5 star property. I have traveled through the Caribbean and Mexico extensively to bring my clients an array of options from all inclusive, boutique, luxury and villa properties. I don’t believe in niching down because the world has so much to offer. I enjoy working with first time travelers to Disney to empty nesters that are ready to explore the world. I enjoy getting to know my clients and grow with them over the years!

Testimonials
-
Italy
Every part of our Italy trip was wonderful and most importantly Worry Free for me, with a trip I could just show up and enjoy.
-
Hawaii
Thanks to Christy for helping make our 30 year anniversary trip to Hawaii a very memorable one. She was very patient and prompt while answering all of our questions. The hotel she suggested was very nice and in a great location. The excursions she reserved were very nice, especially the dinner cruise. She knows her stuff about Hawaii and navigating the island. So my advice is to let her handle everything and you just go and enjoy a stress free vacation!

Multi Generational Travel

Adventure Planning in the American West & Beyond
I specialize in curating unforgettable journeys to some of the most beautiful and iconic destinations in North America—combining meaningful experiences with a commitment to safety, sustainability, and authenticity.
The American West holds a special place in my heart. I return to this region year after year, continually expanding my firsthand knowledge of the land, accommodations and activities. I’ve personally explored and inspected every accommodation in Yellowstone and Jackson, ensuring my clients receive only the most reliable, well-matched recommendations.
Signature Western Itinerary Planning
For Jackson Hole, Grand Teton, and Yellowstone National Parks, I offer a signature planning service that includes:
Hand-selected accommodations
Vetted activities and guided excursions - I only book what I approve
Dining reservations
Detailed daily driving routes - zero guesswork on how to navigate each day
Customized trip pacing to match your travel style
Want to embrace your inner cowboy? I can incorporate a 3-night Dude Ranch experience into your itinerary—balancing time for outdoor adventure with the opportunity to explore Jackson and Yellowstone in full.
For those seeking an elevated western experience, I partner with some of the most exclusive luxury dude ranches in the U.S. These 7-night stays offer five-star accommodations paired with world-class outdoor activities such as horseback riding, fly fishing, archery, hiking, and more. Availability is limited and these properties often book a year in advance, so early planning is essential!

I design hiking and biking-centered itineraries across the U.S. and select global destinations. These trips are ideal for solo travelers, couples, or small groups looking to immerse themselves in nature and active adventure.

The AmericanWest
Luxury Travel
I specialize in creating customized travel experiences tailored to the discerning traveler’s unique preferences. By leveraging trusted industry connections and in-depth destination knowledge, I craft seamless, unforgettable journeys that blend comfort, privacy, and immersive cultural encounters.
From African safaris to the Australian outback, and everywhere in between, my itineraries are infused with exclusive experiences that elevate travel beyond the ordinary—whether it’s a private vineyard tour in Tuscany, a helicopter ride over New Zealand’s glaciers, or a sunrise safari in the Serengeti.
I work closely with each client to understand their travel style, expectations, and dreams—then I bring those visions to life with thoughtful detail and personalized service every step of the way.
Are you looking for a professional travel advisor with a diverse portfolio or someone who can grow with you and your family through each stage of life?
Since joining Pirate and Pixie Dust Destinations in 2016, I’ve quickly risen to the role of Senior Travel Advisor consistently ranking as the top selling travel advisor in our agency. With years of experience and a passion for creating memorable and meaningful vacations, I work closely with clients to design vacations to a wide range of destinations: Europe, the Caribbean, Hawaii, Theme parks, Cruises, National Parks, the USA and beyond.
I was a nurse for over 20 years, working in critical care and obstetrics. I have always enjoyed servicing people and my passion for travel ignited my business. I enjoy getting to know my clients over the years and I am truly invested in their travel experience.
Why Do Clients Choose to Work with Me?
I build long-term relationships with my clients, growing with them as their travel interests evolve. Many families begin their journey with a Disney or cruise vacation and later branch out to the Caribbean, Europe or adventure travel as their children grow. Empty nesters return to traveling as a couple or with friend groups and retirees discover the magic of river cruising. I understand that no two travelers are alike—and no two trips should be either.
Life is busy. My role is to remove the stress and guesswork, allowing you to focus on what matters most: making lasting memories.
Let’s design your next adventure together!
