My Story
I’m a Washington DC-based travel guru who loves mapping out the details of every trip. My goal is to take the planning off your plate so you can focus on enjoying the experience!
Travel Style
I enjoy a mix of travel experiences—whether it's exploring a new city, relaxing on the beach, or heading out on an active adventure. I’m always on the lookout for great food, local culture, art, and history, and I like to balance city travel by getting out into nature—hiking, scuba diving, and all sorts of travel adventures. If you’re looking for a trip with a bit of everything, I’ve got you covered!

Melissa did an amazing job planning our trip. While hotels were limited due to a holiday, she found us great hotels that met our needs. She took care of everything, including transfers. I could go on my vacation knowing that all was taken care of. I highly recommend using Melissa as your travel agent.

Our travel advisor Melissa was our lifesaver. She was thorough with her suggestions for us and laid the information out easy for us to understand (it being our first time traveling in area). Her communication was prompt and also kept up with global incidents that could’ve impacted our flight and/or itinerary. Luckily we were able to avoid changing any plans. Melissa was our most capable search engine and she was very dedicated to us having the best time. And we did! Thank you Melissa! Wouldn’t have happened without you!

I decided to do a last minute trip to Puerto Rico and Melissa did a fantastic job of pulling different options of accommodations to choose from. I had a specific set of criteria and she was able to quickly provide excellent options. She was able to book and confirm my stay within 24 hours at a great rate. She also had incredible recommendations for things to do around the island including going to the rainforest, El Yunque, and other things to do in Old San Juan. I'll definitely be using Melissa for future trips!

Melissa planned the perfect four-day getaway to Cancun for our family of five! She researched and found the best lodging option with a three-bedroom setup that fit us perfectly. She went above and beyond to ensure our dietary preferences were accommodated, and she booked a snorkeling tour that absolutely knocked our socks off. Our kids still can’t stop talking about exploring the second-largest coral reef in the world! Melissa’s carefully chosen outfitter and guides made the whole experience easy, fun, and educational.
11 out of 10 — we can’t wait to work with Melissa on our next family adventure!

Winter City Break in Colorado
I spend a lot of time in Colorado with my family. While you may think of it as only a ski destination, Denver and Boulder offer a ton of options for a city break! Stay in one city and day trip to the other. Between the two, you can experience beautiful mountains, fantastic food, a stellar beer scene and cultural and wellness experiences. Even without skiing, this area is a winter wonderland—just remember to bundle up!
