My Story
I’m Staci, a travel advisor passionate about crafting unforgettable journeys, from bucket-list adventures to stress-free getaways. I help travelers explore the world with ease, curating seamless trips filled with unforgettable experiences.
My Travel Style
With over three decades as an Events Coordinator for luxury brands in the Southeast and currently at a 5-star Med and Day Spa in St. Augustine, Florida, I bring the art of seamless planning and elevated experiences to every journey. I specialize in corporate and affinity group travel, as well as family vacations, ensuring each trip blends effortless logistics with unforgettable moments.
Raised in Kentucky and a proud University of Kentucky alum, my heart belongs to the Bluegrass State. From curating luxury experiences at the Kentucky Derby, to private tours of Lexington’s horse farms, to guiding guests along the famed Bourbon Trail, I create bespoke itineraries that showcase the best of my home state’s heritage and hospitality.
Beyond Kentucky, I thrive on helping companies craft impactful incentive trips, leadership retreats, and client events that leave a lasting impression. My expertise lies in merging creativity, strategic partnerships, and budget-savvy tactics to deliver extraordinary travel experiences.
As a lifelong traveler, I also share my adventures with my sister through our podcast, Two Sisters, No Itinerary, where we bring a fun, unscripted take on globetrotting together.
Whether it’s your bucket-list Derby weekend, a custom corporate retreat, or a family adventure tailored to your style, I’m here to design journeys that feel as unique as you are.

This was a last minute booking request from me and Staci handled it like a breeze. She had it booked within minutes and took all the stress of finding a hotel off me immediately.

Staci is the best! I called her and told her I wanted to go on another cruise and she just asked a few questions to narrow down a couple options for me and when I heard that MSC was one of the cruises leaving during the timeframe I was looking to go, I advised her that was the one I wanted to go on. She booked it for me and made sure I got the class I wanted and answered any questions I had about this specific cruise line. I love working with Staci for all my travel needs. I am planning more cruise travel and other trips with her. I have recommended her to some of my friends as well.

Staci handled this booking of the hotel I needed seamlessly. I very much appreciate all of her help with this because booking a hotel can be overwhelming since there are so many out there and she made it quickly and I am so happy.

The ABC Islands on Carnival Cruise Ship Horizon
First, I want to say that I’m adopted and did not know I had a sister until I was 45 years old. She and I have been virtually inseparable since then. We have been on several vacations together, however this was our first cruise together. My sister and I had ever been to the ABC Islands and we have both had them on our bucket list for years. My sister’s favorite cruise line is Carnival, and she was celebrating selling her house and transitioning into her travel nursing career.
