My Story

By day, I’m a corporate attorney soaking up the California sunshine. But when I’m off the clock, I’m all about creating unforgettable moments—whether I’m organizing epic group dinners, throwing parties, or helping friends plan their big events. My true passion? Crafting travel adventures! I’m on a mission to spend at least one night in all 50 states, and I’m down to my final three. Some of my favorite trips have been chasing fall colors in New England and taking long, winding road trips throughout California. I’ve even toured more than 20 state capitol buildings just for fun.

Internationally, I’ve mapped out and explored Spain, Italy, Mexico, French Polynesia, and New Zealand. I love keeping travel logs, snapping photos, and sharing daily stories with friends and family along the way!

On top of my legal career, I’ve spent two decades in hospitality. Nothing makes me happier than helping others live life to the fullest. After all, you only live once, so, cheers to a life well-lived!

Travel Style

When I plan a trip, I start things off by picking a few must-do experiences or top priorities—think of it as setting the vibe for the adventure! That way, I can build a budget that makes sure the important stuff gets the spotlight, while I save a little on things that aren’t as exciting.

I like to sketch out a loose daily plan, especially for spots that need advance tickets or have quirky operating hours. But honestly, food and drink are always high on my list, so I make sure to mark a few tasty re-fueling stops wherever I go. Still, even with a rough plan and budget, I love to keep things spontaneous. Some of my best travel memories have come from random detours—just stopping whenever something cool catches my eye, whether I’m on foot or cruising in a car.

And when it comes to packing, I keep it light! Traveling with less means I can move around easily and chase whatever adventure pops up. After all, you can pick up most essentials wherever you land, so why stress?
