Sullivan

After graduating from Northwestern University with a degree in Theatre, I spent 10 years in Los Angeles acting in television and film. My favorite parts were collaborating with my colleagues, learning something new and getting to work on location. After acting, I spent 10 years as a realtor, advocating for my clients fiercely, and guiding them calmly through the stress of their transactions in a way that empowered them to feel confident in their decisions. My favorite parts were working with my clients repeatedly, and understanding their unique preferences and needs.

Making the switch to become a travel advisor was a lightbulb moment. I got to combine my passion for creating magical moments, understanding my client's specific tastes, and developing a collaborative, trusting relationship that becomes effortless and can span decades together.

For me personally, travel is best experienced as a perfect pairing of opposites: the thrill of adventure juxtaposed with moments of quiet relaxation. Exploring a bustling city all day and then retreating to a private hilltop to watch the sunset, staying at a luxurious hotel, but getting a dinner at the local fish shack nearby; splurging on an incredible private tour one day and doing nothing at all the next! I have a passion for orchestrating a trip through the moments my clients will experience - putting myself in their shoes and sensing what will be the perfect next beat of their travel journey - making sure they get a full sense of the location, but also the time to reflect and digest how being there makes them feel.
