My Story
Former small-town gal, turned high end hotel connoisseur. University of Wisconsin MBA graduate turned Travel Agency Founder.
I'd love to share my love for travel with my clients through premium and personalized experiences.. Whether you’re a frequent traveler seeking a partner to seamlessly curate your travel calendar, or venturing international for the first time, I’ll tailor your travel to you in luxury and comfort. With ten combined years in real estate then travel advising, I’ve built an excellent track record in providing committed and client-focused care. When I manage your travel, you’re assured detail-oriented, highly personalized, and wildly responsive service—making travel anywhere across the globe seamless and stress-free.
My specialties lie in true 5-star luxury travel, whether at a resort in the Caribbean or French Polynesia, on a high-end small ship cruising, a fully customized multi-week itinerary in Europe, premium air travel, and truly private experiences via charters by air or sea. Wherever you'd like your travel to take you, I'll help you bring your dreams to life—no limits! If you feel we'd be a good match, please don't hesitate to reach out—I welcome any questions about my service and what it looks like to work together.
My Travel Style
I’m passionate about high-end travel of all varieties, from a luxury suite in the South of France, to far-flung stays on private islands, or small-ship cruises or yacht tours of the Caribbean. My focus lies in combining premiere accommodations with true immersion into the destination. This may look like a city stay and visits to countless museums, relaxing at a Caribbean resort but venturing out to for the best local dining, starting the morning in a private pool suite before experiencing the wonders of Central America’s rainforests, or visiting sights of antiquity in the Mediterranean via private boat. You’ll find me traveling four months+ of the year, exploring new travel products, reading about hotel openings and renovations like the morning news, or combing through forums for the latest reviews from fellow high-end travelers. This means you will always receive both highly tailored, and well-informed recommendations. Travel is an investment both financially and in your valuable time, and I’m here to ensure we make the most of it.

Working with Lauren was an absolute joy from start to finish. She handled every detail of our trip with precision, warmth, and genuine care, anticipating needs we hadn’t even thought of and ensuring the entire experience was seamless. And keeping the whole thing a surprise from my husband! From coordinating the booking to making special arrangements for my his birthday, nothing was ever too much trouble. Her discretion, responsiveness, and ability to make everything feel effortless made the journey as memorable as the destination itself. I would trust Lauren with any future travel plans without hesitation.

Booking with Lauren made my travel experience seamless. She provided a portal where I could access my itinerary and that housed all the confirmation documents. It kept me organized and made it so I never had to spend time searching to find information I needed. Lauren helps me feel confident that everything about my trip is handled, and should a problem arise, I know she’d be able to help fix it.

Experience One of the Best Hotels in Arizona: Ambiente, a Landscape Hotel
Ambiente, a Landscape Hotel, stands out as one of the best hotels in Arizona by seamlessly blending luxury with an immersive experience in nature. During my stay, I would have been content to simply relax in my room and take in the panoramic views of the mountains and wilderness. This was truly the best retreat I could dream of, between the ability to disconnect in nature and the luxurious room and amenities. I would return anytime I find myself needing a getaway to rest and recharge, and would highly recommend it to my clients in need of the same.
