After a three year career in corporate travel , and managing a leisure agency for 3 years, - I decided that it was time to make my dream come true! While cruising aboard a "fun-ship" and meeting 20 fireman & policeman from San Francisco - I knew cruising would be my life!

On Jan. 18, 1988 I opened The Cruise Company - and the phones began to ring off the hook! After 17 years of making others "dreams come true" I truly know this is where I belong.

I have been fortunate enough to travel the world, experience several different cultures, cruise on fabulous ships (145 currently under my belt!) and meet fantastic people. Life doesn't get much better than this! I've been a firm believer that if you love what you do - you'll never work a day in your life!

Another dream came true when we did a partial charter aboard the Holiday, and a full ship charter the following year. Both were a great success! With the capabilities of the Internet, The Cruise Company has grown by leaps and bounds! It has truly been "smooth sailing" for us.
