My Story

Growing up in a family of medical professionals: doctors, nurses, and specialists, I understand the unique pressures of healthcare careers. After my own career stopped feeling authentic, I took two and a half years to travel and reconnect with myself. That restorative journey taught me how transformative travel can be during life transitions. Now I design meaningful experiences for high-achievers who are ready to step back, reflect, and discover what's next.

Travel Style

You've built something remarkable in your professional life. Now you're sensing there's more, and you're right. I work with accomplished individuals who understand that travel can be a powerful catalyst for growth, not just an escape from routine.

My clients aren't looking for typical vacations—they're ready for experiences that honor both their achievements and their evolution. This might mean a mother and daughter exploring new places together, discovering each other as women rather than just parent, and child. Or a successful professional who's ready to step away from work as their primary identity and explore what their next chapter could hold. Perhaps you've reached a major milestone and need meaningful space to reset and reconnect with who you are beneath your accomplishments.

My approach doesn't start with destinations. It starts with understanding what you want to feel and what this journey means for your life right now. Using empathy and deep listening, I design immersive experiences that engage your intellect and curiosity: private access to local experts, hands-on cultural exchanges, or carefully curated group dynamics where authentic connections happen naturally. I'll help you tap into travel's transformative magic so you return not just rested, but genuinely nourished, inspired, and grounded in your authentic self. Because you know that the most meaningful investments are the ones that change how you see yourself and the world.

Travis was great! My recommendations were well-organized and came in a cute format. All of the recommendations were great, met my parameters, and the process was so much easier than Google or exploring options on my own. Travis was also super responsive. I’ll use his services again in the future.

As a nurse practitioner, business owner, and mom of three, I felt overwhelmed by travel planning. I wanted our trip to be meaningful, but I didn’t know where to start.

Working with Travis was different from anything I expected. He didn’t ask me where I wanted to go at the beginning like most travel advisors. Instead, he focused on who I was, what gave me energy, what brought me joy, and what got in the way of the travel experiences I wanted with my kids. Through his coaching, he helped me identify and release the pressure to 'do it all.'

Then he did something brilliant: he helped me find my anchor. We identified a simple ritual: starting each morning at a local coffee shop, that made me feel grounded in an unfamiliar place. Travis taught me that meaningful travel isn’t about cramming in every landmark. It’s about designing a trip around the rhythm you actually need. Once I understood that, everything clicked.

The result? My travel anxiety disappeared. I felt at ease in a new place with my kids. We enjoyed more quality time together and had conversations that never would’ve happened at home. One of the most meaningful moments afterwards was when my daughter posted a thank you on Instagram, sharing how grateful she was for the chance to travel the world together. That meant everything to me.

What began as one trip has now become an annual tradition. If you’re a busy professional or parent who wants more than just another vacation, Travis will help you create memories that truly last a lifetime.

My recent business trip to San Francisco was a complete success thanks to the amazing service and support provided by Travis! He has all of the qualities I value most in a travel advisor: keen attention to detail; bespoke recommendations for entertainment, food, and drink; and lightning fast responsiveness to my questions and requests. He also got me a great deal on a beautiful, modern hotel in a safe and accessible neighborhood. He will be my go-to advisor from now on!
