My Story
Born in Transylvania, based in Northshore Chicago. I am a passionate world traveler, lifestyle concierge and experience curator. Cruised my way around the world and touched down on all continents.
Travel Style
My travels almost always include a boutique hotel paired with as many little luxuries as possible. Great food and wine, art, culture and local flavor experiences are my go-to's when I plan a trip. I love a great architectural boat tour while sipping champagne and chasing sunsets. In the summer, you'll find me in Europe enjoying quality time with my friends and family, exploring new places and feeding my creativity.

Ella is truly exceptional. Before our trip even began, she had everything perfectly organized and delivered in a single, detailed email—our itinerary, hotel bookings, rental car information, tour schedules, and even thoughtful insights on Italian customs and culture.
When we landed in Italy, she immediately checked in with a warm text to ensure our flights went smoothly. Throughout our entire trip, she remained incredibly attentive and responsive—no matter the time of day, she was always quick to answer our questions and offer support.
Ella handled every detail of our travel arrangements, from hotel bookings and transportation to private tours, always providing us with personalized options before finalizing anything. Her extensive knowledge of hotels, airlines, and experiences made planning effortless, and traveling stress-free.
One special touch that truly impressed my husband was the handwritten welcome notes waiting for us at the hotel. It's clear she doesn't miss a single detail.
Ella gave us complete peace of mind while traveling abroad. I can’t recommend her highly enough—she’s a true professional and an absolute pleasure to work with.

Ella listened to what we wanted for our hotel experience in Prague and we were very pleased with the Aria. In addition, she got us a complimentary dinner in the restaurant which was one of the culinary highlights of our trip!

The Best of Evanston: Heritage, Culture and Coffee
You may think of Evanston as synonymous with Northwestern University or Rotary International Club, and you are not wrong. The city is the headquarters of Rotary and grew up around the University, getting its name from Frank Evans, one of Northwestern University's founders. That said, there is so much more to this place, you'll want to come and visit!
The best of Evanston lies in its unique charm with the perfect blend of historical heritage, vibrant cultural scene, and natural beauty. The city offers a slower pace compared to Chicago while providing a rich collection of activities and experiences. Whether you’re exploring the beautiful lakefront, diving into the city’s history at the Evanston History Center or enjoying the eclectic mix of shops, art galleries and restaurants, I promise you that Evanston will be a memorable and enriching visit. Its welcoming community, diverse offerings and picturesque setting make it a must-visit destination for travelers seeking a laid-back yet cosmopolitan experience.
