Kelly is a first class organizer of events here in the states and abroad. I have traveled with her and she has an amazing set of skills that made our trips incredible. She thought of everything, had arrangements lined up, excellent translators provided, and accommodations prepared. Truly a very gifted woman. I loved traveling with her and would be honored to be a part of any trip she arranges...

Kelly wokred with my team when we traveld to ICCL to Kenya in 2009. She was a great support. Very detailed and was always willing to help with any questions we had, not matter how large or small. She helped make the entire process, simple, smooth and a great success. I look forward to working with Kelly in the future!

      I've been working in the travel industry since 2002, with a focus on mission & humanitarian trips. That expanded to me living over seas (shout out to my friends across the pond in Ukraine), coordinating conferences, events and travel itineraries for VIPs, dignitaries and well, common folk (like myself). I can also help you find your perfect spot for a destination wedding, honeymoon or dream vacation! Whether you are budget conscious or going all out on the trip of a life time, I would love the opportunity to help make your dream a reality! Show less
