I'm April, a travel advisor with three years of experience turning trip ideas into tailored, memory-making vacations. My passion for travel started with planning Disney trips for my own family  - my husband, son, and I still love discovering something new each time we go to Disney! That same attention to detail carries over into every trip I plan, whether it's a cruise or a custom itinerary for a family with completely different interests!

Before becoming a travel advisor, I was a teacher - so understanding people's needs and communicating clearly come naturally to me. I take a personalized approach to each vacation, asking the right questions and using visuals to help clients picture the experience before they even pack a bag! Every trip is like a puzzle, and I love the challenge or finding the just-right pieces to make it fit!

Most recent favorite unique tour at Disney: Wild Africa Trek at Animal Kingdom

Favorite cruise port to leave out of: Cape Liberty, NJ or the Manhattan Cruise Terminal in NY because you can see the Statue of Liberty and you go under the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. It almost looks like you can touch the bridge on larger cruise ships! So cool!

Favorite travel tip: All those reusable bags you have for shopping at home - take a couple with you on vacation. A lot of destinations either charge for plastic shopping bags, or no longer provide them. Fold them up really small and put them in a purse or crossbody bag until you need it! Also good for wet clothes if you're doing a quick dip in the pool before the airport!

Bucket list destination: Tokyo Japan and a river cruise to visit all the European Christmas markets

Favorite airport snack: Starbucks coffee and a chocolate croissant

Favorite book or movie: Almost every book from the author Ali Hazelwood (women in STEM topics!)
