My Story
With 10+ years in the wine import world and a master's in food culture and communications from Slow Food’s University in Italy, I plan custom trips to wine regions across Europe and beyond. Think vineyard stays, hidden trattorias, and insider access to the people who make your glass (and your plate) unforgettable. Based in NC, planning globally.
Travel Style
My travel style blends understated luxury with deep cultural and culinary immersion, shaped by years of experience in the wine industry and a master’s degree in food culture. I design journeys through the world’s great food and wine regions, offering exclusive access to top estates, intimate meals with producers, and boutique accommodations—thanks to my long-standing personal relationships wherever grapes and olives grow. Each itinerary is thoughtfully paced to prioritize comfort, connection, and the quiet joy of discovering something authentic and unforgettable.

Baroque & Beyond: A Slow Traveler’s Guide to Lecce
I still remember my first visit to Lecce—taken there by a Slow Food representative while studying at the University of Gastronomic Sciences. I stepped onto its golden limestone streets and thought, “What is this gorgeous place, and why have I never heard of it?!” Often called the Florence of the South, Lecce radiates warmth—through its sun-soaked Baroque facades, its laid-back southern hospitality, and the way locals treat beauty, food, and tradition as part of everyday life. It’s a soulful, slow, and deeply charming city that reveals itself like a secret you’re lucky to stumble upon.
