My Story

From my Air Force days living in England to time spent throughout Europe and across the U.S., travel has long been closely tied to both my professional and personal life.

I’ve spent years exploring Europe, working with international teams, and leading groups — experiences that shaped how I think about planning trips that feel seamless rather than stressful.

I’m a proud “hotel snob” — because where you stay matters just as much as where you go. I’m especially drawn to off-the-beaten-path places, boutique hotels, and hidden gems that make a trip feel grounded, memorable, and unhurried.

That same approach shapes how I plan trips for my clients.

Common Questions, Simply Answered

What kinds of trips do you plan?

I design custom trips around how you like to travel — from European journeys and milestone trips to slower, more intentional itineraries. Every trip is thoughtfully tailored, not built from templates.

Do I have to be ready to book?

Not at all. The first step is simply a conversation. We’ll talk through ideas, timing, and the kind of experience you’re looking for — no pressure, no obligation.

How involved are you in the planning?

As much as needed. I handle research, logistics, and coordination, while keeping you involved in the decisions that truly matter.

I work best with travelers who value thoughtful planning, quality accommodations, and well-paced experiences. While I don’t publish minimums, I focus on trips where care, judgment, and detail make a meaningful difference.

Still have questions? That’s what the conversation is for.
