Born and raised in Rye, NY, I first got the travel bug while studying abroad in Geneva, Switzerland. While there, my passion for travel grew with experiences all over Europe in Paris, Rome, Florence, Cirque Terre, Capri, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Prague and of course laps around the Swiss Alps for skiing. Soon after college, I started my career in travel, leading online advertising for Starwood Hotels for three years before stops at KAYAK and HomeAway.
I’ve been the go-to travel reference for friends and family for many years, and I love to make recommendations on where to stay, what to do, and where to dine all over the globe.
You can be sure that I plan travel for others with the same enthusiasm as I do for myself, researching exhaustively and making sure that each experience will strike the perfect balance of luxury at the right price.
These days, my family lives in Austin, TX. We look forward to ski vacations in the mountains for exercise, and we head to the beach for relaxation. Leaving the kids behind, we often join friends in California Wine Country and in New Orleans to let loose and dance. Don’t miss Jazz Fest! This summer, I took my family to Thailand for three weeks, experiencing the culture and beauty of Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and the secluded beaches of Koh Kood.
I’m excited to leverage my experiences and passion for luxury travel to help plan uniquely memorable adventures for you and your loved ones.
