Born and raised in South Carolina’s Piedmont region, tucked between the Atlantic Ocean and the Appalachian Mountains, Ashlyn grew up with a natural curiosity for travel and new places. That curiosity turned into years of firsthand experience across a wide range of destinations and travel styles, shaping how she plans trips today.

Ashlyn plans travel the way she lives it. Thoughtfully, intentionally, and with a lot of care.

​

Her professional background outside the travel industry has trained her to stay organized, think ahead, and manage details without losing sight of the bigger picture. She doesn’t just put trips together. She looks at how everything fits, what could go wrong, and how to make the experience smoother for the people traveling.

​

As her own life has grown, so has her travel style. What once meant solo trips, girls’ getaways, and couple escapes now includes family travel, group trips, and multigenerational vacations. That evolution gives Ashlyn real insight into what different travelers actually need, because she has planned and lived it herself.

 

She is The Pixie Planner’s Riviera Maya and Xcaret specialist and has extensive knowledge of the Disney Parks. Ashlyn is also well versed in cruising and all-inclusive travel, which allows her to guide clients toward trips that feel right for them, not just what is popular or trending.

​

Today, Ashlyn lives in Southwest Michigan with her husband and two daughters. When she’s not planning trips, she’s usually spending time with her family, hosting friends, or staying involved in her kids’ school. Clients describe her as approachable, dependable, and genuinely invested in making sure their trip is one they feel good about from start to finish.
