I didn’t start out as a travel advisor. I started as an educator, specifically as a director of travel and exchange programs, which turned out to be the best job I’d ever had.

I spent years connecting students and families with the world, building programs, and watching people come home changed by what they’d experienced. When we relocated, I went back into the classroom and missed that work for years.

Eventually my kids got older, I had more breathing room, and a colleague who owned a travel agency offered me a way back in. I didn’t hesitate.

That was nearly a decade ago. What started as coming home to something I loved has grown into a specialty in the kind of travel that takes real expertise to get right: safaris, polar expeditions, custom itineraries for families who want more than a resort pool, and trips that require someone who actually knows the destination, not just the brochure.

I’ve spent time living and working in Geneva, studied in France, cruised Norway’s Arctic coast, gone on safari in South Africa’s Sabi Sand, and in January 2026 I joined an HX expedition to Antarctica and camped on the ice overnight. That trip changed something in me, in how I see the world and in what I want for my clients.

The work I’m most proud of isn’t always the most dramatic destination. It’s a 21-night custom Australia itinerary I built from scratch for a mom and daughter bucket list trip, because nothing pre-packaged fit what they needed, so I created something that did, with stopovers in Hawaii and Fiji along the way. It’s the family who came home from their first safari and couldn’t stop talking about it. It’s the client who trusted me with something that mattered.

I know my stuff. I’ve studied, lived, and traveled across more of this world than most. But what I want you to feel when you work with me isn’t just competence: it’s that this is genuinely something I love, and that caring about it shows in every trip I plan for you.

When you’re ready to plan something that goes beyond checking a box, I’m here.
