Hi I'm Sheila Smith

your Epic Quest Navigator


I’m a mom of three with varying needs who fell completely in love with Universal Orlando, and now we come from Lapeer, Michigan almost every year. It's a 2.5 hour flight and is always worth it. I’ve learned how to make these trips fun, smooth, and stress‑free for kids with different needs, different energy levels, and very different opinions on what to ride first.

That’s why I love helping other families, couples, and adventure‑seekers plan their own Universal vacations. I’ve been in the “where do I even start” stage, the “why is this so confusing” stage, and the “oh wow, this is actually magical” stage. I get it. And I’m here to make it easier, calmer, and a whole lot more fun for you too.

Universal Destinations 
Expert Travel Planning

Planning a Universal vacation should feel exciting, not overwhelming. I help families, couples, and adventure‑seekers create joyful, stress‑free Universal experiences across the United States, including Universal Orlando Resort, Universal Studios Hollywood, and the new Universal Kids Resort opening soon in Texas. As a Universal Destinations & Experiences expert, I make planning easy, personalized, and completely worry‑free.

A More Personal Approach

I don’t just book vacations. I help families create memories. I help moms feel supported. I help first‑timers feel confident. And I help Universal lovers experience the parks in new and joyful ways.
When you work with me, you’re not just getting a travel agent. You’re getting someone who loves Universal as much as you do, someone who has walked these paths, eaten these snacks, ridden these rides, and knows how to make the most of every moment.

How I Save You Time, Money, & Stress

1

It doesn’t cost you anything.

Truly. 

Universal pays travel agents a commission after your trip is booked, so you get expert planning at no extra cost.

As long as you book with me, you pay no extra for the service.

2

You save time, energy, and avoid stress.

I help with everything from dining suggestions to park strategies to sensory friendly breaks.

I work directly with Universal so you don’t have to spend hours on hold or online.

3

Personalized, concierge‑level service.

I share real tips, real experience, and real recommendations from someone who genuinely loves these parks. Universal is a place I know and love, and I bring that passion into every trip I plan.
