My goal, whether I’m traveling myself or planning for a client, is presence. To move through a place with enough confidence in the logistics that you can be in the moment and escape the everyday. I happen to love it when a trip throws something unexpected at me, the kind of thing that becomes the story you tell for years, but I know not everyone feels that way. So I plan in a way that smooths out the unexpected, while leaving just enough room for the moments you didn’t see coming. I don’t overthink what I pack, or how each individual day will unfold. To me, nothing is more important than flow. The logistics and transitions are where I’m meticulous. Nothing derails a trip faster than a broken flow, and getting those pieces right is what frees you up to be present. When it comes to planning for clients, I go out of my way to make every trip feel individualized. I’m not going to point you toward the most expensive hotel or the destination everyone is doing this year. Most dollars do not equal the best experience. What I’m looking for is the right fit for you, for this trip, for this moment in your life. I love being a sounding board. Most of the time, clients already know what they want. They just need to talk through their ideas. We start broad, rule things out, hone in on what matters, and build something that feels both intentional and natural. We live in a paradox right now: more information than we know what to do with, and somehow harder than ever to know what’s worth your time. Influencers are selling experiences and algorithms are surfacing the same ten destinations. I’m here to help you cut through that, think through the whole trip with you, and make sure what you end up with feels personal. Because travel changes you. You leave one person and come back another. The only thing left, is to go!
