Who am I and my why

Hi, I'm Catie!

I'm a wife, mom, active-duty Air Force member, and avid scuba diver with a passion for exploring the world. Through both my military career and personal adventures, I've been fortunate to travel to incredible destinations across the globe, including Switzerland, Sweden, Germany, Saint Lucia, Mexico, Japan, the Philippines, Thailand, and many more. Every destination has taught me something new and reinforced my belief that travel is one of life's greatest investments.

While I enjoy visiting iconic destinations, some of my favorite experiences have been in places many people never think to explore. Living and traveling throughout the Pacific has introduced me to hidden islands, vibrant cultures, world-class dive sites, and unforgettable communities that have completely changed the way I see travel. Those off-the-beaten-path adventures are often the ones that leave the biggest impression.

Scuba diving has become one of my greatest passions. There's something incredible about descending beneath the surface and discovering a completely different world filled with colorful reefs, sea turtles, manta rays, whale sharks, and marine life that most people only see in photographs. Diving has taken me to places I never imagined I'd visit and has connected me with amazing people from around the world. It's a reminder that some of life's greatest adventures begin when you're willing to explore beyond the ordinary.

That's exactly why I started Sea the Next Chapter Travel.

I know planning a vacation can be overwhelming. With endless destinations, resorts, cruises, tours, and travel advice online, it's hard to know where to start. My goal is to take the stress out of planning so you can focus on what matters most—making memories with the people you love.

Whether you're dreaming of relaxing on a tropical beach, exploring a new country, setting sail on a cruise, planning your first scuba diving adventure, or checking a bucket-list destination off your list, I'll help create a vacation that's tailored to your travel style, interests, and budget.

For me, travel is about more than just visiting a destination. It's about collecting stories, experiencing new cultures, meeting incredible people, and creating memories that stay with you long after you've returned home.

I'd be honored to help you write your next chapter.
