Hi, I'm Mike.

I'm a Minnesota guy who got hooked on travel the long way: years on the road as a field service technician, and eventually all 50 states, most of Canada, Mexico, and the Bahamas. That job taught me to be thorough and to love the details, and it turns out those are exactly the habits that make a trip go smoothly. Along the way I also figured out that the best part of any trip isn't the destination. It's who you share it with.

My first cruise is a good example. It stopped in San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico, and I fell for the place: the culture, the people, and the food. Sampling my way through that stop was one of the highlights of the whole trip. That's the kind of day I want for my clients, the kind you're still talking about long after you've unpacked.

I've sailed with Princess Cruises on the Grand Princess and the Caribbean Princess, and I've learned what a good day at sea feels like. Cruises and all-inclusive resorts are where I do most of my work, because they let families and couples relax without juggling a hundred little decisions.

I'm the planner who reads the fine print so you don't have to. Cabin choices, transfers, timing, the details that quietly make or break a vacation: I sweat them so your only job is to enjoy it. I can't promise nothing will ever go sideways, because travel is travel, but I work hard to keep every trip smooth, and I'm only a call or an email away if something does.
