I help travelers plan thoughtful, well-designed trips to Italy and Europe — without the stress, guesswork, or wasted time.
For more than three decades, my work has centered on helping people make confident decisions in complex situations — guiding long-term relationships and high-stakes choices with clarity and structure.
Who I Work With
I work best with travelers who value thoughtful planning, unique stays, and a more intentional way of experiencing a destination — not just checking boxes.
Many of my clients are planning once-in-a-lifetime trips to Italy or Europe and want it done right the first time.
How I Approach Travel Planning
Great trips don’t come from templates or trend lists. They come from understanding pace, priorities, and trade-offs — and designing a plan around the traveler, not the other way around
My background in advisory work taught me the value of asking the right questions, anticipating friction before it appears, and building plans that hold up in the real world. That mindset shapes every trip I plan, from hotel selection to routing to on-the-ground flow.
Travel has always been part of my professional and personal life — from years of work tied to logistics and planning, to extensive firsthand travel throughout Europe and beyond.
I specialize in boutique hotels, thoughtfully paced itineraries, and experiences that feel grounded and intentional rather than rushed or overproduced. Whether planning a return trip to a familiar place or navigating somewhere new, my focus is on helping travelers move through a destination with confidence.
Outside of travel planning, I value simplicity, good design, and places with a strong sense of character — whether that’s a small hotel, a quiet piazza, or a well-run business.
I work with a limited number of clients at a time and enjoy building long-term relationships with people who care about how they travel and want a trusted partner in the process.
I’m also a U.S. Air Force veteran — an experience that shaped my appreciation for preparation, reliability, and thoughtful logistics — qualities I bring to every trip I plan.
