My love of travel began as a child when my parents took me to travelogs. Then in 1988, I took my first international trip with the Eastern Michigan University Madrigal Ensemble to perform in the British Isles. I was wowed by the experience but returned to complete my degrees in music education, history, and eventually a masters degree in the art of teaching. 

In addition to my 30+ year career in education, I also performed nationally and internationally with various professional choirs and my band, which led to many global contacts and friendships. Combining my extensive travel experiences (63 countries and territories and 45 US states visited so far) with my knowledge of the arts, music, and history, I am happy to customize vacations that display the magic, beauty, and diversity the world has to offer. Creating international connections, with the hope of facilitating understanding and compassion of other cultures, is why I chose travel as my second career. Since the launch of Archway Travel in 2017, I have been excited to help people navigate the globe and make lasting memories!

The world awaits….Let’s go!
