Growing up, I was inspired by my wanderlust-filled parents. They traversed the world sans kids, from the Pyramids of Giza to the Basque country, before eventually bringing us along for unforgettable family adventures in the likes of Botswana and the Galápagos Islands. These trips did more than just spark my love for exploration; they showed me how deeply travel can connect loved ones and expand perspectives.

That passion followed me into my first career. For 15 years, I built startups and managed operations & products, all while channeling my professional attention to detail into planning travels for myself, friends and family, scouting the world's best food and wine. After a transformative three-month sabbatical traveling around the globe, I knew it was time to take the leap and turn my personal obsession into my profession.

Today, as a travel advisor, I use my startup skills to craft detailed, thoughtful itineraries. I believe incredible hotels do more than just provide a home base; they anchor and enrich your entire experience. But the magic of travel is also found in the unexpected: stumbling upon a hidden street gallery, sharing tea with a local family, or saying yes to an experience you didn't even know existed.

If you're looking for a travel advisor who helps you experience that 'kid in a candy shop' feeling with every new destination, restaurant and hotel experience and plans detailed, thoughtful itineraries with that project management eye, I’d love to help you bring your bucket list to life.
