About this Nominee
After 25+ years in hospitality—including managing guest experiences at Disney's Magic Kingdom—I founded Martini & Reed because I believe luxury travel should feel personal, not transactional. I don't just book trips; I craft experiences based on destinations I've personally explored, ships I've sailed, and resorts where I've walked every inch of property.
When you work with me, you're getting honest recommendations from someone who's been there, insider connections that secure room upgrades and exclusive perks, and a commitment to handling every detail so you can focus on what matters—making memories.
I specialize in high-end cruises (Celebrity, Sandals, river cruises through Europe), all-inclusive resort experiences, and bespoke European itineraries, but my real specialty is listening.
Every client has a different definition of 'perfect vacation,' and my job is to match your vision with the right destination, property, and experience—not push what's easiest to sell.
What separates Martini & Reed from online booking sites and larger agencies?
Personal relationships. I maintain direct connections with suppliers that translate to VIP treatment, complimentary upgrades, spa credits, and priority access you simply can't get clicking 'book now' on a website.
I'm also available 24/7 during your travels—if something goes wrong, I'm your advocate with direct supplier contacts to fix it immediately.
I'm proud to serve our local South Lake community while helping travelers experience the world's most remarkable destinations.
Whether you're celebrating a milestone anniversary, planning a family reunion, or finally taking that bucket-list trip, I treat your vacation with the same care I'd give my own—because in this business, your memories become my legacy.
Travel is too important to leave to algorithms and call centers.
Let's plan something extraordinary together.
