My Story

Bay Area–based dad crafting unforgettable, tailor-made journeys for families, adventurers, and travel sports teams—balancing ease, style, quick-trip logistics, and a touch of magic.

Travel Style

I’m a dad of three with a background in luxury hospitality, including years as Head of VIP Experiences at The Ritz-Carlton and as a concierge in Jackson Hole, where I also lived. I specialize in crafting meaningful family travel—whether it’s exploring the historic cities and beach towns of Europe, from the Czech Republic to Austria to Croatia, hitting the slopes in top US ski towns, or unwinding on the beaches of Hawaii. I also help families seamlessly manage the logistics of travel sports, from quick weekend tournament trips to extended stays, making sure everything from hotels to downtime activities is covered. My itineraries strike the perfect balance of adventure, comfort, and local connection—designed to make travel easy, memorable, and fun for the whole family.

We cannot thank Eric enough for the incredible job he did in arranging our stay at the Beverly Hills Wilshire. From the very beginning, he made sure every detail was handled with care, ensuring our trip would be seamless and stress-free. Eric went above and beyond—coordinating the booking, confirming our preferences, and making sure everything was perfectly set before we even arrived.

When we checked in, it was clear that Eric’s attention to detail had paid off. Our room was exactly what we’d hoped for, and every part of our experience felt elevated thanks to his thoughtful planning. He anticipated our needs before we even knew them ourselves, and his professionalism and dedication made us feel like true VIPs.

Eric’s service was nothing short of five-star, and we would recommend him to anyone looking for an advisor who is not only highly capable, but genuinely cares about creating the perfect travel experience. We can’t wait to plan our next trip with him!
