When I started working for Four Seasons Tours in 1990, I had no idea how many memories I would help create over the years. From the thousands of young performers who have showcased their talents at Walt Disney World and on Carnival Cruises, to the directors and chaperones who put in endless hours of practice and planning, I feel like I have become a part of something that will last forever in their memoirs. Now as Director of Tour & Travel for Four Seasons Tours, Contest of Champions and Rock The Boat Cruises, I am able to oversee the countless hours and dedication which our staff puts into making every trip become one of those lasting memories. Our family atmosphere, accessibility and personal service are assets that I will always make a priority so that every person who travels leaves with something that lasts a lifetime.

Since being with Four Seasons Tours, I have had the pleasure of working with all areas of our company. Currently I am the Office Manager/Accountant with over 20 years experience in accounting/finance. I have also worked in our Rock the Boat cruise department where I had the opportunity to work with all types of student groups to plan and make their cruise a memorable one, as well as with our Contest of Champions National Cheer, Dance & Drill Competition and escorting our Four Seasons Tours groups. Because of my accounting background, you could say I am “meticulous” with details, as is everyone here at Four Seasons Tours. That’s what we do, we take care of the details so that you and your group can relax and enjoy a wonderful experience – whether it is a performance trip, cruise or competing at our nationals!

Being a part of the COC family has allowed me to have a job that I absolutely LOVE. After graduating from Ocoee High School, I attended Tallahassee Community College in Tallahassee, Florida. I later enrolled at the International Academy of Design and Technology in Tampa, Florida where I studied Fashion Merchandising and Retail Marketing. I started ballet classes when I was five years old at the Elizabeth Parson Dance Studio in Windermere, Florida. Shortly after I found my passion when I joined Pop Warner cheerleading. In the years to come I took my talents to the All-Star and High School Cheer level. After graduating high school, I decided to continue my passion by trying out for the UCA Staff with whom I spent my summers traveling around teaching cheer and stunt camps. I have also had the privilege of coaching at the high school I once graduated from. I believe my passion for cheerleading and many years of experience in the cheer and dance world will allow me to create a once in a lifetime experience for all of the teams I have the privilege to work with.
