Hi! I'm Rachel! As your Phoenix travel agent—based right here in the beautiful Biltmore area—I’m passionate about curating extraordinary travel experiences for my clients. Imagine yourself discovering breathtaking destinations, savoring new cuisines, and connecting deeply with the culture and rhythm of a place—that’s the kind of travel I help design.

A Little About Me: I grew up in Indiana, and graduated with my degree in Art History from Indiana University. I used to work in aerospace for NASA, and have spent years living across the U.S.

Beyond Indiana, I have lived in Ohio, Minnesota, Texas, and now, Arizona. My entire Hoosier family has officially transplanted here, and this is where I've finished raising my two children. The first time I moved to the valley was as a new college grad back in 1996. Next, I moved to Houston, Texas in 1998 to start my family. I returned to Cicero, Indiana to care for my elderly grandmother and to continue raising my two young children.

In 2014 we moved back to the valley to be closer to the rest of our family, and establish our own family base. I now call Phoenix home, where desert sunsets, mountain hikes, and vibrant design inspire my creativity every day. I've been fortunate to travel to 33 countries and counting, and with this wealth of experience,

I can design personalized itineraries that cater to your specific interests and budget. Whether you crave a luxury river cruise, an ocean voyage, or a custom Italian escape or Greek adventure, I can transform your travel dreams into reality...from right here in Biltmore Phoenix!
