My Story
Luxury travel with taste. NYC-based advisor who knows the best rooms, views, and how to get there in style.
Travel Style
As a Brazilian-born New Yorker with a background in luxury marketing, PR, and wellness, I approach travel as both a curated experience and a brand story. I believe every trip should feel like a well-executed campaign—visually striking, emotionally resonant, and uniquely personal. I bring my insider knowledge from the entertainment and lifestyle industries to design journeys that align with who my clients are—or who they dream of becoming. I’m drawn to destinations with strong visual identities, impeccable hospitality, and spaces that tell a story—from boutique hotels with heritage design to beach escapes that feel like a private editorial shoot. Whether you’re a couple seeking intimacy, a solo traveler chasing purpose, or a creative craving inspiration, I craft travel that looks good, feels good, and delivers lasting impact.
Luxury to me isn’t just five stars—it’s intention, detail, and the ability to transform how you see the world… and yourself.

For my birthday girls trip to Los Angeles, we wanted something stylish, well located, but still within a real budget. Lucas immediately understood the balance. The hotel he chose was exactly right for us, and he even secured a room upgrade and extra perks.
He planned out three days of restaurants and experiences that made the whole trip effortless, including tickets to a show at the Hollywood Bowl that we wouldn’t have been able to get on our own.
Honestly, it reminded us how silly it is to book travel without a professional on your side, especially when you need to book three connecting rooms.

Signing up for Elo’s 24/7 concierge membership changed the way I handle travel. Lucas and his team make everything feel easy, from corporate logistics to securing reservations I wouldn’t have been able to access on my own.
During my recent trip to Boston, everything was handled ahead of arrival, including added perks that made the stay even smoother at a busy hotel.
Having that level of access and support has been worth every cent. Thank you, Lucas and team!

My husband and I just returned from our first ever Atlantis cruise, and honestly, I had no idea what to expect. We were stepping into something completely new. Atlantis Events is known for producing the largest all-LGBTQ cruise experiences at sea, bringing together thousands of guests from around the world. I had heard stories about how intense, glamorous, and high-energy it could be, but I didn’t know what was real, what was exaggerated, or how to properly prepare.
That’s where Lucas came in. From the very beginning, he removed all the uncertainty. He created a customized Amazon shopping list with everything we would need for the week, including supplements, themed party outfits, cabin decorations, and essential items I would never have thought to bring. Every recommendation felt intentional and aligned with the rhythm of the cruise, the themed events, and the overall social environment onboard.
He also put together a detailed first-timer guide explaining what to expect socially, logistically, and emotionally. That guide alone prevented rookie mistakes and helped manage expectations. Instead of feeling overwhelmed, I felt informed and prepared.
What impressed me most was how honest and practical his guidance was. He did not glamorize or dramatize the experience. He explained the excitement, the energy, the social dynamics, and even how to pace ourselves throughout the week. That level of transparency made the trip smoother and far more enjoyable.
We boarded the ship confident, excited, and fully ready to make the most of the experience.
For anyone going on Atlantis for the first time, especially couples, having Lucas guide you transforms the entire experience.
It does not just make the cruise easier. It elevates it.

This was my first time booking a hotel through Lucas, using Elo Reserve in partnership with Fora, and I genuinely didn’t realize how much of a difference it would make.
From the moment I arrived at Four Seasons St. Louis, everything felt elevated. There was a thoughtful welcome amenity waiting in my room, which was such a beautiful touch after traveling. On top of that, I received a complimentary room upgrade and late checkout, which made the entire stay feel more relaxed and indulgent.
The whole process was seamless and effortless. Lucas handled everything, and I could simply enjoy the experience knowing I was taken care of. It’s clear that booking through him unlocks perks and attention to detail that you just don’t get booking on your own.
I absolutely loved my stay and will definitely be booking my next trips with Lucas again.

Before working with Lucas, I used to plan my trips mostly through my credit card points program. While it worked, there was never any real human support, and everything felt very transactional.
Working with Lucas completely changed that. He took the time to understand how I like to travel and handled the planning in a much more personal and thoughtful way. Having someone accessible and human made the entire process easier and far less stressful.
When I arrived at the hotel, there were welcome amenities waiting from both the hotel and Elo Reserve, which was a really nice surprise. It immediately made the stay feel more special and well thought out.
Another big advantage is that I’m still able to earn points and benefits with the hotel brands I already frequent, while also getting added perks and personalized service.
Overall, the experience felt smoother, more intentional, and much more enjoyable than booking everything on my own. I’d absolutely work with Lucas and Elo Reserve again and would recommend them to anyone who wants a trip with added perks, real human support, and thoughtful planning.

Beyond South Beach: Miami’s Luxe Life Uncovered
Miami transcends its postcard-perfect beaches. It’s a city where art, architecture, and lifestyle collide in the heat of the tropics, a place that invites indulgence and freedom in equal measure. For me, it’s more than a destination; it’s a second home. I return several times a year, drawn by its rhythm, from Brickell’s sleek skyline to Haulover’s sun-soaked sands. Miami delivers the ultimate balance between sophistication and self-expression, a city that always feels alive, inclusive, and endlessly inspiring.

Solo in Paradise: Exploring Hawai‘i’s Honolulu & Big Island
When most people think of Hawai‘i, they picture honeymooners sipping Mai Tais at sunset, couples strolling hand-in-hand along Waikiki Beach, or families splashing around at resort pools. What I discovered, though, is that Hawaii is just as magical—maybe even more—when experienced solo. I spent 14 unforgettable days between Honolulu and the Big Island, traveling over New Year’s Eve and into the first two weeks of January. It turned out to be one of the best trips of my life: part party, part nature adventure, and all-around paradise. Hawai‘i taught me that you don’t need a partner to dive into its beauty—you need curiosity, an open heart, and a willingness to say yes.

Lazy Afternoons & Local Bites: A Taste of Paris Life
Paris is where I escape the pace of New York—and surrender to slow, golden afternoons. Mornings begin with flaky pain au chocolat from the nearest boulangerie, and somehow, they stretch effortlessly into late lunches, quiet gardens, and moments that ask nothing but presence. It’s a city that reminds me to breathe, bite, and just be.
