About Me

Annemarie’s passion for travel began with her first cruise at age 10—no surprise for the daughter of an airline pilot and a flight attendant. That early spark evolved into a lifelong journey, including a career as a U.S. Air Force pilot and now as a luxury cruise expert. Today, Annemarie curates exceptional travel experiences for discerning clients and proudly serves as a host for Travel Leaders Network’s prestigious Distinctive Voyages program. When she's not sailing the seas, she enjoys coastal living in Long Beach, California’s Marina Pacifica neighborhood with her husband, Sean, and their elegant greyhound, Chamaca.
