My passion is planning tropical vacations

I love to see the excitement in clients when we start the planning process for a dream vacation. Honeymooners are particularly fun because this is a very special trip. My extensive knowledge and attention to detail ensure that each trip is smooth ...

Hawaii Destination Expert

From a home base in Damascus, Maryland, I specialize in booking memorable vacations to the Hawaiian Islands. With a long-held fondness for beaches, adventure and culinary exploration, I draw upon a wealth of experience helping travelers plan the perfect getaway.


Attention to detail is a crucial part of any journey, and I listen carefully to client needs and desires. Whether adding an unexpected adventure, finding that local-favorite dining room, or carving out solitude for a romantic honeymoon, I go the extra mile to maximize travel budgets and minimize planning stress.


Though I help plan journeys to various destinations, Hawaii is a natural fit for my expertise. I have personally vacationed on four Hawaiian Islands and am a Certified Expert with Pleasant Holidays. I particularly cherish time spent on the Big Island, enjoying enormous 100-foot banyan trees, lush tropical rainforests, the white sands of Hapuna Beach, and the natural beauty of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.


I pass along insider knowledge and “off the beaten path” tips to clients of all ages. I had a young couple, years ago, who wanted to save money by camping in Hawaii. I located a campground on the Black Sand Beach and rustic cabins on Maui and in a state park. Four years later, the couple came back and booked a very deluxe five-star trip to the same islands. 


My job as a travel agent doesn’t end once the traveler's journey begins. I stay hands-on when issues arise with hotel rooms, delayed flights or cancelled excursions. I once helped a family who missed a connection rent a helicopter to reach their final destination. They called me at 2 a.m. East Coast time to let me know they made it, and we all breathed a sigh of relief. 


When not traveling myself or helping others fulfill nomadic aspirations, I enjoy dancing, Zumba, and spending time with my three grandchildren.

She is extremely thorough and detailed oriented, so that all the bases are covered before and during each of our cruises and adventures; no surprises.

Exceptional Travel Advisor/Agent

We start by meeting with Tammy and investigating where exactly we would like to visit. Once we have a location in mind, Tammy’s expertise kicks in. The expertise Tammy brings to each adventure is truly amazing. She COVERS all of the bases, i.e., airline reservations, transportation to and from the airports to either a cruise ship or hotel, hotel reservations, travel insurance, and return trip details, etc. she keeps in contact with you all the way up to your departure. With her know of cruise lines, she directed us (my wife is a vegan) to Oceania for their extensive knowledge and ability to prepare unbelievable meals and treats both regular and plant-based.

We trust Tammy’s recommendations and expertise completely. We have always had a fabulous vacation experience beyond our expectations, because of her devotion and enthusiasm to her customers. She knows our preferences for airlines and seating, hotels, cruise lines, etc. and successful manages exactly what we wish.
