At Wanderlust Vacation Travel, I believe that every family deserves the opportunity to explore the world without added stress or uncertainty—especially families traveling with a loved one on the autism spectrum. As someone with close family members and dear friends with autism, I bring not only professional dedication but also a deeply personal understanding of the unique considerations that can come with travel.

I am currently working toward becoming a Certified Autism Travel Professional™ (CATP) through the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES). This certification equips me with the training to better support families by creating customized, sensory-aware travel experiences that prioritize comfort, safety, and inclusion.

Many destinations and travel providers are now recognizing the importance of accessible, autism-friendly travel—and I’m here to guide you toward the best of them. For example, Royal Caribbean International was the first cruise line to be certified autism-friendly and continues to be a top choice for families. They offer priority check-in, flexible dining options, and trained staff who understand how to support neurodiverse guests. Onboard programming includes sensory-friendly films, quiet spaces, and special activities designed with autism in mind.

Disney Parks and Disney Cruise Line are also exceptional when it comes to autism inclusivity. Their Disability Access Service (DAS) at the parks helps reduce time spent in lines, and their cast members receive training to better serve guests with cognitive and sensory differences. Disney Cruise Line offers similar accommodations, including advance planning for dining, entertainment, and activities that take individual needs into account.

I also work closely with resorts and destinations that are IBCCES-certified or demonstrate a strong commitment to inclusive travel—places that offer sensory-friendly rooms, trained staff, low-stimulation zones, and visual schedules to help prepare travelers in advance.

From helping you build a structured itinerary with the right pacing, to arranging gluten-free meals and accommodations, my goal is to take the stress out of travel planning and replace it with peace of mind. Whether you're dreaming of a theme park adventure, a relaxing beach vacation, or a family cruise, I’m here to help you make those dreams a reality—with empathy, insight, and expertise.

Let’s plan a journey that meets your family’s needs—and celebrates everything that makes your travelers unique.
