Profile details
About
Event planner, proud Penn Stater and history fanatic on a mission to discover each new city's laws on bottomless brunch. Forever in pursuit of the perfect bagel, oldest cemeteries, luxe upgrades and airports that carry Diet Coke.
Travel style
I enjoy making premium experiences feel within reach. From the Kentucky Derby or the Olympics to the Northern Lights, there are many trips that people wait forever for and never cross off their bucket list because they are waiting for a special occasion or the right time. I love being able to plan a trip around a once-in-a-lifetime experience and showing that it can be done affordably with small hints of opulence or prioritizing where you splurge.
