My Story

I’m a certified travel advisor and leadership coach who believes travel should transform you, not exhaust you. I work with high-achieving professionals who are done with the “top 10 must-sees” approach and ready for something deeper. I believe your bold work in the world professionally can be accompanied by a wonderful world of your own—and that includes adventure and travel. So, when you crave intentional travel but perhaps don’t have the bandwidth or headspace to plan it—that’s where I come in.

My own adventures across 75 countries has often been about slow travel and saying yes to adventure: the Trans-Siberian via Russia, Mongolia, and China with a toddler, London to the Sahara Desert overland (and sea!), six months circling the globe with three kids under 10, half-terms of frozen lakes, reindeer and sledging in the Arctic Circle, or home-cooking with a Nonna in Italy. And if the journey involves a train? Even better!

Travel Style

Slow mornings. Long train rides. Conversations with strangers. Markets and supermarkets that introduce you to a culture. I plan travel that feeds your soul. Think: jazz bars tucked down side streets in New Orleans, cooking classes in Morrocan medinas, bookshops tracing a trail around a city, thermal springs where locals actually go. I specialize in themed journeys, multi-country adventures, and helping highly-effective people create intentional travel. Every itinerary I create asks: which part of yourself do you want to inspire on this trip?
