Profile

Been in the travel industry for 36yrs. I’m the owner of Making Magical Vacations Travel which I started in 2017. I have 25 “MAGICAL” Specialists within the United States. My agency is directly contracted with MAJOR travel suppliers from Theme Parks & Resorts / Cruises/ ALL-Inclusive / Global & Domestic Destinations & Rail. Within the past 36yrs of being in the travel industry I have personally built long standing relationships with all of my travel suppliers.

I’m also a 26yr Notary within the State of PA.

I’m the wife of my loving uber driving husband Stephen Thomas Forte of 29yrs (dated 6yrs total together 34yrs), and the mom of our 5 sons, 3 in heaven and 2 here Vincent (25) and Dominic (23).. My eldest son managed 12 Spirit of Halloween Stores before working for the State last year (2024) , and my middle son Dominic was a contestant on Season 3 of Lego Masters (Ep.3) which you can watch on Hulu! .

Because of our youngest son Tony’s 12 yr medical journey I have sat and fundraised on MANY Non-Profit Boards such as (Gift of Life, Family Advisory Council of the Penn State Children’s Hospital, Make A Wish, Children’s Miracle Network and was Cub Master of Pack’s #96 & #11 for my sons’ Vincent and Dominic ) …

I was recently diagnosed on 1/9/2025 w/Stage 1 Breast Cancer (HER2+ ER- & PR-) which I had to take a brief hiatus from attending any network functions that I belong to as my immune system was comprised. As of 6/10/2025 my surgical pathology report indicated that I’m cancer FREE-I’m extremely blessed to have the MOST PHENOMENAL team that both God & Jesus brought me. I will still be in treatment (non-chemo ) every 3wks till 1/2/2026 and then this journey will be in my rear view mirror with my windshield clear as a bell!

Throughout my journey I still along with my team of MAGICAL Specialists planned  vacations for multigenerational families and couples , I also plan vacations for children who are critically ill /and or terminal Make a Wish Foundation of Philadelphia, Delaware and the Susquehanna Valley , The Ashley Lauren Foundation of Brielle, NJ and the After Action Foundation in Lancaster which sends active duty military men and women who are currently serving along with their families on vacation before they are sent into duty.
