Travel has been a passion of mine for most of my life. I caught the travel bug early when I moved with my parents from a small town in Vermont to Hawaii. That’s when I realized the enrichment of travel. After spending many years in landlocked Scottsdale, Arizona, I traded the desert for the sunny beaches of Florida for a few years.  As a Wanna Get Away Travel expert, I have hopped across the Caribbean uncovering the most pristine beaches, exhilarating hiking, and ultimate resorts. I am a warm weather girl at heart, always up for an adventure, and have a knack for knowing which special details make for an unforgettable trip. The islands of the West Indies are diverse with culture, food, geography, and of course beautiful beaches. However, my expertise is not limited to the Sun and Fun of the Caribbean. I have traveled from Australia, to parts of Europe, and Central America. While based in Siesta Key Florida, in my spare time I enjoyed running beaches, surfing and scuba diving in southern Florida, as I research the next ultimate trekking trip. I have recently moved back to Scottsdale AZ. The more I learn and travel this wonderful planet and its vastness, the more I want to share this knowledge with clients. I strive to give you exactly the type of travel experience you want and deserve. From the planning stages until you return home, I am at your disposal.

I have been traveling since the age of 1 when my parents moved from India to Dubai and we traveled every summer to different places around the world including Europe, Egypt and Greece. I moved to the USA to go to college in New York and my travel bug took me all around the east coast during every break I got. Over the last 20 years my personal and corporate travel has taken me around the World to Asia, Australia, Middle East, Europe, Hawaii, Caribbean, Mexico, Alaska and 48 states in the USA. My passion for travel has only increased over time and every special occasion in life was celebrated with a trip to a new destination! I decided to become a Travel Consultant so I can share the wealth of knowledge and experience I have gathered over time and help others make beautiful memories like I have. I work with my clients lifestyle, interests, preferences & budget to customize and plan their vacation from A-Z. I strive to give every client my utmost attention to detail, research and planning the vacation of their dreams and am there for them through their trip and beyond. I specialize in Family Vacations, Cruises, Group trips, Destination Weddings, All-inclusive Resorts, Romantic Getaways and Corporate Travel. On a personal note I am a mother of 2 young children who have caught the travel bug too and have now traveled to various US and International destinations already and I am sure we will be exploring many more beautiful places in this world and creating memories!

I love to travel the world and want to share the magic of traveling and experiencing new places and things with people.  I am world traveled and have been to places many only dream of.  Being in the travel profession gives me the chance to share my experiences with my clients and give them first hand knowledge.
