My Travel Journey
My path to this profession was shaped by a unique journey that began in Vietnam during the tumultuous year of 1975. As my family sought refuge and stability, my fascination with the transformative power of travel ignited.
​
My initial flight experience, aboard the iconic Pan Am airlines, set the stage for a career dedicated to crafting remarkable travel adventures for my clients. Over the years, I've worn various hats in the travel industry, from managing corporate travel arrangements to leading a Uniglobe Agency. This diverse background provides me with insights into the ever-evolving world of travel.
My Approach as a Travel Advisor
I'm proud to hold the designation of a Certified Travel Advisor, reflecting my commitment to providing expert guidance and a personal touch to each journey I curate. What sets me apart is my dedication to experiencing destinations firsthand. I regularly attend conferences and travel to gain firsthand knowledge of the places I recommend, ensuring that I can provide you with the most up-to-date and accurate information.
Business Ownership and Collaborations
As the owner of A Walker Travel, I bring a personal touch and entrepreneurial spirit to every travel experience I design. My business is built on the foundation of expertise, passion, and a genuine commitment to your travel aspirations.
Being a member of the prestigious Signature Travel Network gives me access exclusive client benefits from a network with over $11 billion in annual sales.

Beyond My Desk
Outside of my professional life, I'm a passionate advocate for adventure. Whether I'm on the tennis court, skiing down snow-covered slopes, or exploring the vibrant underwater world through diving, I love the thrill of discovery. My adventures have taught me that the essence of travel lies in experiencing new cultures, connecting with diverse individuals, and creating lasting memories.
​
My life is enriched by a 25-year marriage and my cherished bonds with my two daughters, both avid travelers. Our family excursions instill in me a deep appreciation for the ability of travel to strengthen connections and create enduring family memories.
