About
I'm a former exec from the fashion industry pursuing my insatiable wanderlust full time. I'm a mom, wife and chauffeur to my (very busy) six-year-old daughter. Life is good in beautiful Lake Tahoe, but I dream of Europe.

Travel style
Named one of Fora's top travel advisors, I'm a travel enthusiast who has been lucky enough to explore 34 countries (and counting!) with my adventurous husband and daughter by my side (she's been to 10 countries so far). My happy place? A stunning boutique hotel with a breathtaking view, poolside bliss and the convenience of room service (or at least, in-room coffee is a must!). My absolute favorite thing to do is discovering luxurious, one-of-a-kind properties in various destinations and roaming around new cities exploring on foot. As a travel advisor, nothing brings me more joy than creating unforgettable memories for families and couples. Let me help turn your travel dreams into reality!
