Whitney
Patapoff

Growing up in Southern California, Whitney often traveled with her family up and down the west coast and throughout the US, but her passion for travel began in earnest while studying abroad in Oxford, England during college. From there, she explored much of Europe, including France, Ireland, Germany, Spain, and many others. These adventures inspired her to continue traveling as much as possible while balancing a career working in administration and management, and starting a family. In 2017, they moved to Chicago, where she currently resides with her husband and two boys. Since 2022, she has enjoyed creating unforgettable travel experiences for clients as part of Follow My Lead travel. Her favorite part of being a travel advisor is diving into the details—finding unique solutions for every client, crafting seamless itineraries, and bringing their vision to life with personalized touches.
