Janelle
began her career as a travel professional in 2011 when she founded
Mount Dora Travel as a franchise owner. For nearly a decade, she built a
loyal client base and guided travelers on cruises, tours, and custom

From there, Janelle joined American

high-level travel coordination.

charters, church trips, school programs, alumni associations, family
reunions, and other organizations.
What Others Say:

worked hard to get the best fares and accommodated travel needs. I will
use her for all my future travels." CJ
"Janelle booked a cruise
for my wife and I. She handled everything perfectly. We knew right where

Travel
has taken me across the United States and far beyond, from cruising the
turquoise waters of the Caribbean to exploring the stunning coastlines
of Alaska and Europe. I’ve also had the opportunity to sail on
expedition vessels, experiencing destinations in a more immersive and
adventurous way. These journeys allow me to share firsthand knowledge
and help my clients choose the travel experiences that are perfect for
them.
