My Story
New York M&A lawyer on sabbatical, with a passion for spending that precious out-of-office time forming meaningful connections and memories (currently living in Spain). I have an appetite for good food, wine and culture, and will travel for it. The world is vast and beautiful and meant to be explored. Tell me about your dream vacation and let's make it happen together.
My Travel Style
Seeking the perfect balance between luxe travel and authentic adventure, always for the best value. I don't travel 17 hours to stay inside the hotel but after a day of trekking, wine tasting or climbing the 463 stairs of the Duomo, the bed should feel like a cloud!

Natalie was absolutely incredible from start to finish. She took the time to truly understand what we wanted out of our trip and curated an itinerary that balanced relaxation, exploration, and a bit of luxury perfectly. Her communication was exceptional — always responsive, thoughtful, and one step ahead.
When we had to make a last-minute change and cancel the Barcelona portion of our trip, Natalie handled it with grace and efficiency, immediately helping us rework our plans so that everything still flowed seamlessly. She offered amazing suggestions for what to see, where to eat, shop, and wander — and every recommendation hit the mark.
Thanks to her expertise and care, we felt fully supported the entire time and could just focus on enjoying our vacation. Natalie turned what could have been a stressful change into an even more memorable experience. We can’t wait to plan our next adventure with her!

Natalie sold us on the reputation of Kimpton, and her firsthand experience with the specific property. And she highlighted the myriad of options on the breakfast buffet :)

Itinerary for a Weekend Getaway in New Orleans
New Orleans is a magical place with something for everyone, but it really shines when it comes to its historical significance, local cuisines and world class live music scene. The city plays an important role in keeping the tradition of jazz alive and making it more accessible. Vibrant and teeming with energy, New Orleans is perfect for a quick weekend getaway, bachelorette party or family trip. Come hungry and it’s impossible to leave without a deeper understanding of New Orleans’ unique food traditions and a desire to return.

Best Itinerary: 2 Days in Valencia
Best known for being the birthplace of paella, Valencia is Spain’s third most populous city and somewhere you can wrap your arms around even if you only have two days or a long weekend. Steeped in history dating to Roman times, Valencia boldly straddles its past and future with ultra-modern buildings no doubt contributing to it being named the World Design Capital in 2022. Sunny with beautiful beaches, delicious food and quirky festivals, Valencia is well-connected to both Madrid and Barcelona by high-speed train (2 hrs and 2 hrs 40 mins, respectively) and not to be missed.
