About
Research-obsessed so you don't have to be. Stand up comedy producer by day, travel concierge by night (or maybe vice-versa). Alaska-bred, LA-based and Dallas-frequenter.

Travel style
I consider my travel style sophisti-budget. I'll book the St. Regis using points I've saved up. I'll try the hot, new restaurant, but also eat at the local hole-in-the-wall for breakfast. I'll walk a little farther to catch the Uber because taxis cost double.
I love a hotel room with lots of easily accessible usb plugs, a plush robe, a shower built with the handle on the correct side so you don't get sprayed with water when you turn it on, and a balcony with a screen door so I can fall asleep to waves crashing.
Favorite hotels
The Westin Hapuna Beach Resort
A contemporary-style resort that contrasts with lush, manicured gardens and the endless blues of the sky and the ocean on the beautiful Kohala Coast in Hawaii.
