My Story
The friend you text when you’re not sure where to stay, where to eat, or what to pack. I spent years marketing @takemeoutofoffice, the social travel app, and naturally became the go-to for planning trips that you can’t stop talking about.
Travel Style
I’d rather travel really well, just a little less often. Think design-forward stays, great restaurants, and a strong sense of place. I gravitate toward trips that feel equal parts relaxed and energized, with beautiful settings, a bit of a scene, and just enough structure to make everything feel easy.
Somewhere between a well-planned itinerary and leaving room for the best unplanned moments, like an extra bottle of wine that turns into the best night of the trip.

Hotel Spotlight: The Dunlin, Auberge's Family-First Lowcountry Resort
There are family trips that are about getting away, and then there are family trips that feel like coming home, even when home is a brand-new Auberge property tucked along the Kiawah River. My sister and I had been trying to coordinate a real multi-gen reunion for two years; once The Dunlin opened, it instantly resolved the question of where. What I didn’t expect was how completely the property would replace the urge to plan or leave: every meal, every outing, every quiet moment in an Adirondack chair was already on the resort grounds. Auberge’s newest Lowcountry resort doesn’t just accommodate families. It choreographs a stay that lets them actually be together.

The Ultimate Girls’ Weekend in Austin, Texas: A 3-Day Itinerary
Austin isn’t a destination I visit—it’s a city I used to call home, and frequent multiple times a year. It’s where I went to college, where I went for my mini-moon, and where I return to for more girls’ weekends than I can count. As a Fora Travel Advisor with real local history here, I know the difference between the Austin the bachelorette circuit knows and the Austin long-time locals quietly love: boutique fitness studios, lake-day picnics, chef-driven restaurants, and the elevated hotels where the staff still remembers your name. This itinerary captures Austin’s stylish, slowed-down side—the version that swaps loud honky-tonks for sunrise pilates, pool floats at Barton Springs, and a candlelit dinner at my forever-favorite restaurant. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone birthday, planning a bachelorette weekend with a little more intention, or finally pulling off the long-overdue reunion, this is the version of Austin I’d send my own best friend to.
