Key West

My Story

History seeker. Army veteran. Your insider to the Florida coast. After years of navigating the globe and mastering the hidden corners of Key West, I founded Rhumb Harbor to turn standard vacations into deep cultural immersions. I don’t just book trips. I use a historian’s eye and a captain’s precision to craft itineraries that reveal the soul of a destination.

Whether you’re looking to dive the wrecks of the Gulf or walk the storied streets of London, I bridge the gap between “tourist” and “traveler.” Let’s plot a course for your next great story.

Travel Style

I lean toward the “sophisticated explorer” vibe—trips that balance rugged adventure with refined comfort. Think of it as a mix of a morning scuba dive on a remote wreck followed by a sunset dinner at a local spot with a century of history. I prioritize authenticity over tourist traps, favoring itineraries that leave room for the “happy accidents” of travel while ensuring the logistics are executed with military precision. If you want a trip that feels like an intentional discovery rather than a checklist, we’re going to get along great.
