About
Based outside of NYC and always hungry for a slice of pizza or the perfect bagel schmeared with cream cheese. You can find me at a beach resort when I'm not working my way down my travel bucket list.

Travel style
I love the hustle and bustle of a busy city – from the museums and people watching to the restaurants and cafes – but I'm equally happy lounging by a gorgeous pool at a glam hotel.
