My Story
NJ-based travel advisor with a passion for curated trips, beautiful views, and uncovering great gluten-free dining worldwide.
Travel Style
I plan travel the way I travel myself: elevated but realistic, detailed but flexible, beautiful but comfortable. I love iconic views, wine tastings, beach days, boutique hotels, walkable locations, and thoughtful pacing. I believe in VIP perks, strong supplier relationships, and building itineraries that feel curated, not cookie cutter. Because I understand allergies, mobility considerations, and real-life logistics, I design trips that feel seamless and safe while still being exciting and memorable!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jen! I am so grateful for all her help in planning a wonderful trip for our family. Jen was such an easy person to work with, was always incredibly patient and helpful and was on top of everything. Planning the trip with Jen was so much fun- she gave us wonderful ideas and helped us find things I never would’ve found on my own. While we were there, Jen was always available, proactively reaching out and checking in throughout the trip. I cannot wait to plan another trip with Jen and I will be referring all my family and friends to her for future trips. Thank you again for everything, we truly had the best trip and couldn’t have done it without your help!

Jen was great. She helped us find a hotel to stop at on our long road trip to Florida. I wasn’t sure where I wanted to stay, and she was able to book it within an hour of me telling her the general area where I’d like to stop!

Our Florida vacation was nothing short of unbelievable—and it’s all thanks to Jen. From the very beginning, she created a “Jentinerary” so thoughtful and detailed that we were able to completely turn off our brains and just enjoy every moment. Every step of the trip felt effortless. Jen anticipated everything we could possibly need, from perfectly timed activities to seamless transportation arrangements. We never had to second-guess where to go, what to do, or how to get there—it was all handled flawlessly. What truly stood out was how present and attentive she was throughout the entire experience. She checked in with us regularly, making sure everything was going smoothly and adjusting things as needed. It felt like we had a personal guide behind the scenes, ensuring our trip matched exactly the kind of experience we wanted. If you’re looking for a travel experience where every detail is taken care of and all you have to do is show up and enjoy—Journeys with Jen is absolutely the way to go!

We have booked with Jen before and will continue to book everything through her. Why???? Because she actually listens to what our wants and needs are then finds us the perfect vacation. Jen goes the extra mile to ensure we have everything we need & suggests things we don't think of ourselves. Outside of the vacation itself, Jen reminded us to do our immigration online before arriving to the airport ( what a time saver that was )
We are looking forward to our Greece trip Jen has planned for us. I will share all about that when we return!! Thanks Jen for ALL that you do to make sure we all set to go!

Jen is the best!! She was able to include several perks and amenities to make our stay great. Before our trip, there was a incoming snowstorm and she was able to coordinate an additional night last minute, leaving us with no stress and an extra night in Barcelona. We got early check in, room upgrade and an F&B credit thanks to booking with Jen!!
