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's reviews
Loved working with Julie! Great recommendations and options with lots of details which was super helpful since we were not familiar with the area. We had such a great experience and it was the exact anniversary trip we were looking for! Can’t wait to book again!

Julie is the best. Makes everything so easy and seamless. I have booked my last few trips and hotels through Julie and I don't think I can do it any other way at this point. Whether it's work trip or play trips, Im booking through Julie.

Julie went above and beyond for me with this booking!! Not only did she surface some awesome options in Downtown Austin in a very short turnaround time and in my budget, but she made sure I was taken care of before, during, and after my stay. Unfortunately a pipe broke and there was a leak in the hotel in the middle of the night flooding my room. I called Julie the next morning and she was ON IT. She immediately contacted the front desk to ensure that I would be comped for the prior night. She also made sure that the hotel reimbursed me for my damaged backpack, which was sitting on the floor at the time of the flood. Additionally, my food and beverage credit ended up not applying toward my minibar and I was set to pay close to $100 out of pocket because I wasn’t aware it wasn’t included. Julie made sure to contact the hotel and get the credit applied so I wouldn’t have to pay out-of-pocket. What would’ve been a huge headache and a terrible experience, turned into no worries, not being out any money, and getting my backpack replaced with no issue!! I can’t thank Julie enough, and I will continue to use her for any and all travel I book in the future!!
