From the moment I stepped on a plane aged 7 thinking I was going to space (it was actually Spain), I knew I would always love to travel.

My love affair with travel began in my early 20s when I completed a few summer seasons in Spain as a Club 18-30 holiday rep, eventually working my way up to Area Controller — assisting with running various resorts and managing teams of reps. Four glorious, hardworking years were spent looking after my teams and holidaymakers.

On my return to the UK, I began my career with Lunn Poly (now TUI) and was soon running my own successful store. When my family situation changed, I was fortunate to spend six years at home raising my daughter.

However, once she was in school full-time, I realised I would need to find a way to keep myself busy.

In 2017, I started my own successful travel business as a Personal Travel Agent working from home. This has allowed me to work flexible hours, offer a professional service, and continue a career in travel that I truly love.

I run my own business in partnership with Your Co-op, which provides the added security of working with a long-standing and ethical brand. I sell package holidays that are ABTA and ATOL bonded for your security and peace of mind.

As an independent agent, I have access to over 200 tour operators, so I will always do my best to find the perfect holiday to suit your requirements.
