Planning my next adventure before I’ve even unpacked!
Travel Style
I've been in the travel industry since 2013, starting in corporate events, where my love for travel grew as I visited incredible destinations and stayed at top properties around the world. My work travel was structured with an hour-by-hour agenda, when I travel personally, I embrace the 'No Plan Plan.' I love having a few ideas of things to do and see, but I prefer not having everything locked down. After all, who needs a schedule when you can just wander and see where the day takes you?

Julie went above and beyond to ensure our room block booking was set up the best way for our groups needs.

Julie is our go-to every time we're ready for a new adventure! She's handled everything from our wedding and honeymoon to trips all over the world, and she never misses a beat. Her eye for amazing properties and her attention to detail always take our vacations to the next level. Can't recommend her enough!

Julie did a great job helping coordinate our honeymoon hotels and the Amsterdam property ended up being a perfect fit for us. We especially appreciated the quieter location near Vondelpark while still having easy access to the city. Everything went smoothly with the booking process and the honeymoon note and cookies waiting for us at check-in was such a thoughtful touch! Overall it was a really great experience.

Julie was honestly amazing to work with for our honeymoon and made the entire process so much easier and less stressful for us. From the beginning, she really listened to what we wanted, our travel style, and our budget, and every hotel she recommended ended up being such a perfect fit for us.
One thing I really appreciated was that even after everything was booked, she continued keeping an eye on pricing and would proactively rebook things when lower rates became available. That level of attention and care honestly stood out so much to me.
She also added so many thoughtful honeymoon touches throughout the trip, like personalized notes, cookies, and chocolates waiting for us at different hotels, which made everything feel extra special and personal.
I’m someone who genuinely hates researching hotels and planning travel logistics, so having Julie handle everything made this experience so much more enjoyable for me. She made the whole trip feel seamless and stress-free, and I felt like I could fully trust her recommendations every step of the way. I’ve already recommended her to several friends and honestly don’t see myself booking future travel with anyone else.

Local's Guide to Picture-Perfect Laguna Beach
Laguna is the gem of Orange County and I am lucky enough to call it home! From its beaches and trails to its art and culinary scene, it truly has something for everyone.
