I would describe myself as a fun, energetic, and outgoing person.

I have been very fortunate to have travelled to many wonderful and unique places in the world. From yachting in the pacific coast of Vancouver, to lobster feasting in Nova Scotia, Canada, to the entertainment districts like Los Angeles, Orlando in the USA, to petting Kangaroos in Australia, shopping in the city that never sleeps in Hong Kong, to complete relaxation in the Caribbean ocean and much more. Along the way, we headed on a number of road trips, stayed at countless all-inclusive resorts, taken a few cruises, and engaged in guided and self-guided tours.

I love researching and gathering information for travelers. I will assist you on your travel plans, just like I would put together my own. I am passionate about what I do. Your travel plan will be tailored to you, as it is YOUR TRIP!

Besides having a fulfilling travel experience, the most important question I ask is “What is the one thing that you want to achieve at the end of your trip?”

For me, it is seeing my loved ones faces as they experience unique moments during our travel. I want all of us to have an everlasting memory about each trip, to be able to talk and laugh about them for years to come. It’s about creating life experiences and memories.

“Travel.
As much as you can.
As far as you can.
As long as you can.
Life’s not meant to be lived in one place.”

Katherine and I met when we were 16 in High School, here in Calgary. We attended U of C together. I went on to pursue a career in Turf Management (Golf Course Management). We had children at 27 and I decided that my career was taking too much away from Family as I had to work long hours. I course corrected to Project Management in Construction and moved to Business Development and Sales within the same organization. Again, looking for balance I moved to a small software development house running the sales and marketing. Fulfilling a dream, I started Know Your Neighbourhood with a Business Partner, providing sustainable lead generation for small and medium sized neighbourhood based businesses.

Before my husband and I had children, I went to school and got my degree in Criminal Justice. I secured a job at Court of Queens Bench right after I graduated working for the divorce department. In 8 months I quickly climbed the ladder and became the backup supervisor. While learning about the process and forms, myself and a colleague used are time and created more efficient forms and internal procedures that made the department flow smoother. We both won awards from the Government of Alberta in recognition of what we accomplished.

I worked there for a few wonderful years and became acting supervisor before I had my first child. Unfortunately working for the Government of Alberta did not provide the flexibility I required now that I had a growing family. I left and stayed home to raise our family – I should note we now have two kids! Now that they are older and are independent little humans, I have decided to use my skills and offer my knowledge to help couples who are looking for a quick and easy divorce.

Making that decision is stressful enough and lawyers can be expensive. So I have created my company for those couples who divorces are uncontested and all financial matters and children of the marriage are resolved. I provide an alternative to pricey lawyers.

I can provide the help you need from beginning to end and everything in between.
