My Story
The friend who always knows what to eat and where to stay. My approach is rooted in a deep appreciation for authenticity, whether that’s a family-run osteria or a reimagined historic hotel.
Travel Style
I carefully design every trip to reflect your unique preferences, interests, and pace. Through a thoughtful blend of structure and spontaneity, my goal is to create experiences that feel immersive, personal, and inspiring; never cookie-cutter. Expect seamless planning that anticipates your needs at every stage, with room left for the kind of unplanned moments that often become the most memorable. From under-the-radar culinary finds to boutique hotels with rich character and design, every recommendation is handpicked.
I run a digital publication for all things food, travel, and lifestyle. Follow along at SecondsPls.com.

Ava is the most conscientious travel agent I have ever worked with. I will be recommending her to everyone! I can't thank her enough for her help and constant communication. I will be using her again.

Ava was great to work with. She curated and planned our entire trip and provided an in depth itinerary. Ava was very quick to respond throughout the process. She also provided many options for food and activities based on our interest to choose from. Working with Ava took the stress off planning and allowed us to fully enjoy our honeymoon trip. She even ensured we received complimentary champagne, desserts and a room upgrade. I would love to work with her again!

If I could give Ava 10 stars, I would! She is so well versed on any type of travel, or specific destination. She did her research before sending me information on hotels, travel, or activities. Her communication and response time was unmatched. She asked perfect and specific questions to arrange a stellar itinerary! She is so organized and professional, making me feel like I was totally involved in the planning, but her confidence made me believe that my trip was going to be spectacular, and it was!!!

Weekend Guide for a Relaxed Trip to Newport, RI During Off-Season
In Newport, every street feels touched by old-world charm and Gilded Age opulence. Paired with quintessential New England culinary classics, vast history, and excellent shopping, it’s one of my favorite weekend escapes. While Newport is fabulous during the summer months, I tend to prefer it in the off-season (think: cozy fall foliage and nautical snowy vibes). Perched up by a historic fireplace with a warm drink, half a dozen oysters, and a cup of chowder, there’s no better place to be.
