Hi, I’m Julie!

I’ve always believed that planning a vacation should be just as exciting as taking one. Long before becoming

 a travel advisor, I was the person researching resorts, comparing restaurants, building itineraries, and finding those little details that transform a great trip into an unforgettable one. Friends and family naturally started coming to me for vacation advice because they knew I genuinely enjoyed the planning process just as much as the vacation itself. Turning that passion into a career felt like the perfect next step.

My favorite destination to plan is Orlando, where every visit offers something new to discover. Whether it’s the magic of Walt Disney World, the excitement of Universal Orlando Resort, or exploring Epic Universe, I love helping travelers create vacations that fit their unique interests, budget, and travel style. Every trip should feel personalized because no two travelers are exactly alike.

As a lifelong Harry Potter fan (and proud Hufflepuff!), one of my favorite places to explore is The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. From strolling through Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade to riding the Hogwarts Express and uncovering all the hidden details throughout the lands, I never get tired of experiencing the magic. If you’re wondering which Butterbeer is my favorite, the answer is frozen…and yes, I’ve done plenty of “research” to reach that conclusion!

While I love helping families create unforgettable vacations, I also have a passion for planning adults-only getaways. Whether it’s a couples trip, a girls’ weekend, or a vacation built around food festivals, seasonal events, and incredible dining, I enjoy helping clients experience a different side of Disney and Universal that many people don’t realize exists.

I’m a self-proclaimed foodie, so dining is always one of the highlights of my vacations. Some people plan their park days around rides…I usually start by figuring out where we’re eating! EPCOT’s International Food & Wine Festival is one of my favorite events of the year, and I look forward to returning each season to discover new booths, flavors, and hidden favorites. I also love Universal’s Mardi Gras food booths, seasonal treats during Grinchmas, and the unique dining experiences that accompany Halloween Horror Nights. I firmly believe some of the best vacation memories are made around the table.

Professionally, I come from a background in operations and project management, where organization, communication, and attention to detail were part of my everyday work. Those skills have naturally carried over into vacation planning. I enjoy organizing itineraries, comparing resort options, securing dining reservations, and helping clients feel confident that every detail has been thoughtfully planned before they leave home.

You’ll quickly learn that I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all vacations. Whether you’re planning your child’s very first visit to Walt Disney World, an Epic Universe adventure, a Harry Potter-inspired getaway, or an adults-only weekend centered around Food & Wine Festival and signature dining, my goal is to create an experience that’s tailored specifically to you. I love learning what excites my clients and helping them build a vacation they’ll be talking about for years to come.

When I’m not planning vacations, you’ll usually find me traveling, creating travel content, or volunteering with my local animal rescue. Rescue work has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and building meaningful relationships—qualities I bring to every client I work with.

At the end of the day, I believe vacations are about creating memories. Whether that’s watching your child see Cinderella’s Castle for the first time, raising a Butterbeer in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, celebrating a special occasion, or eating (and drinking!) your way around EPCOT, I love helping people experience those unforgettable moments.

I’d be honored to help you plan your next adventure, and I look forward to helping you create memories that will last a lifetime.
