Hi, I’m Annie! I am originally from St. George, Kansas, so I’ve been around the Manhattan area for most of my life. All my life I knew two things. One, I am very passionate about traveling, and two, I love people. I have a strong desire to make other people’s day’s just a little bit better.
After high school, I went to Kansas State University to get a Travel and Tourism Certificate. I did this because I wanted a back-up plan that I was also passionate about, in case my first plan did not pan out the way I hoped it would. Spoiler alert, my first plan did not pan out the way I hoped it would. I went to Arizona/Texas to be a Flight Attendant with a regional carrier for about 7 months and it was amazing! I got to fly, meet lots of people, see new places and live my dream. There were just a few people missing from that dream. I grew up lucky, being able to travel because of my parents. We created some of my favorite memories together, along with my brothers and my boyfriend, so when I was traveling alone and living in a different state, I felt I was missing a lot. I am very happy to be home with my family and friends and be able to continue living my travel dream with CARE Travel, advising and helping others live their dreams too.

Fun Facts:
I have 2 fur babies who are my WORLD, Pepper (Dalmatian, 9) and Bentley (Golden Retriever, 6).
My most Zen moments take place when I’m sitting on an airplane with the humming of the aircraft.
I am the biggest adrenaline junkie. Parasailing, rock climbing, rock crawling, zip-lining, swimming with sharks, concerts, literally anything, sign me up!
Dream Destination(s):
This one is so hard to pick just one! I have done some in Europe and I would 100% go back, but I would love to visit Switzerland in the winter. I would also love to visit Ireland, Thailand, Jamaica and Australia. LOL
