I am a very proud Mother of five (two active duty military) raised in New England who raised my family in Colorado and couldn't wait to move to the beach! I started working on my Captain's license once I got to Southwest Florida in 2016 and became a 100 GT Inland Coastal Master Captain in 2020 and have thoroughly enjoyed running private tours showing our guests the beauty of the waters around Anna Maria Island, Longboat Key and the surrounding areas ever since! I love providing the backdrop for families and friends to create lifelong memories and share in the celebration of special occasions and events! I gain immense satisfaction out of entertaining my guests and allowing parents to relax and enjoy their vacations while the little ones observe and learn about the diverse ecosystems of the Gulf Coast as well as creating a festive party atmosphere for birthdays, girls trips and other party occasions.
