Witness the wildebeest migration in Tanzania

Working within the Travel industry was always my dream, I'm passionate about experiencing different cultures and immersing ourselves in history; it broadens the mind.  I look forward to connecting with you, and being a part of your next adventure.

I’m a bubbly and passionate travel consultant who loves helping clients build their dream holidays by listening to their needs and creating memorable experiences.

With in-depth travel across Europe, America, Asia, and beyond, I’m excited to share my knowledge and recommend the best river and ocean cruises tailored to your unique holiday needs. I offer seamless journeys where you can relax, unpack once, and enjoy everything from delicious food to top-notch entertainment. 

Some of the highlights of my travels include riding pillion along Route 66 on a Harley from Milwaukee to Santa Monica over 16 days, cruising the Danube on a Scenic River cruise, exploring England and Scotland, and an unforgettable trip to Cambodia to watch the sunrise over Angkor Wat.

I’m excited to help you discover the world your way—let’s chat about your next adventure!

I have been in and out of the industry since the 80's I have lived in Australia, Canada, Italy and of course NZ.

I have travelled to some great places but there is still a huge number of countries on my wish list.

There is nothing better than being able to help someone when they are going to a new place...recommend a hotel, restaurant or activity and then have them return to say how much they enjoyed it all.

As the proud Owner Operator of House of Travel Nelson, I lead a small but passionate team dedicated to taking care of all your travel needs.

I primarily work on the Orbit World Travel side of our business, specialising in business and group travel. But as a traveller myself, I love chatting with customers and the team about their upcoming adventures — there’s nothing better than sharing in the excitement of a great trip!

Travel has played a huge role in my life. From years of family holidays to the Gold Coast and Fiji, where the kids spent hours in the pool or on the playground, to unforgettable highlights like Disneyland (they were 10 and 12 — the perfect age!), followed by a relaxing week in Mexico. These days, with older kids, we’re seeking more adventure. Our recent trip to Vietnam was a standout — from the vibrant energy of Ho Chi Minh City to the peaceful beauty of Hoi An's lanterns and Halong Bay. If you haven’t been, it’s a must! 

Next on my list? Europe. While I’ve done a couple of quick trips in the past, I’m keen to take the time to explore the diverse cultures and rich history of the places I’ve spent years helping others discover.

Whether your trip is big or small, come in and see us at House of Travel Nelson — we’ll make sure it’s your best one yet.
