Our Story
I started my travel business "Travel by Dot” in 2003 at the encouragement of a friend in the travel business and my family.
After living and raising our children in Forked River, NJ, my husband of 43 years, Harry and I moved to Clearwater, FL. In my spare time, I enjoy "cruising the seas” along with my husband, spending time with our three grandsons, who live locally, and traveling to Chicago to visit our three granddaughters.
In November 2010, I joined forces with the prestigious travel resource management company, Travel Planners International. This alliance has allowed me to broaden my scope of expertise and to bring to my clients, even more in-depth service for all their travel plans.
As a member of the National Association of Cruise Travel Agents (NACTA) and Cruise Line International Association (CLIA), I continue to seek out any and all educational resources available, in order to provide my clients with the highest quality of service and knowledge possible. In my quest for knowledge, I have earned numerous accreditations such as Disney Specialist, Hilton, Marriott and Starwood Pro Hotel Sales Specialist, Royal Caribbean Cruise Line’s Expert Status. I am also a Honeymoon/Wedding Specialist. Currently I am a candidate for Princess Cruise Line’s highest travel agent accreditation – Commodore Level, as well as Accredited Cruise Counselor with CLIA.
At "Travel by Dot”, my number one goal is to make sure that a client’s "Wishes, Needs, and Desires” are always met.
