My Story
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist turned travel advisor who believes the best trips are built around connection. From intentional one-on-one getaways to thoughtfully planned family travel, designing meaningful experiences brings me genuine joy. I bring a calm, thoughtful approach to planning—so travel feels effortless from start to finish. I always said I’d become a travel advisor in my empty-nester era... so why wait?
Travel Style
My niche is creating thoughtful and unique itineraries that flow seamlessly. Think: a historic, cozy beachfront bungalow oozing with character and charm-paired with modern comforts. Or a quaint brownstone guesthouse, tucked along cobblestone streets, steps from a vibrant city rich in history, timeless architecture, and gourmet dining. Candlelit dinner at a hidden, hole-in-the-wall Italian trattoria. If this resonates with you, we’d make a great fit.

Our quintessential California date nights were surrounded by families with children who were thriving, not just surviving dinner. That's how our couple's getaway became a blueprint for a family adventure.
