I’ve been planning travel professionally since 2021 when I lived in Africa, but have been traveling the globe myself for much longer. Along the way, I’ve forged connections to the best-of-the-best in the travel industry, from elite hotel programs and cruise lines to tourism boards and in-destination experts.
I chose the word “curated” for our agency because that’s exactly how I want your travels to feel: composed of thoughtfully chosen properties, experiences, amenities, and places. Each travel recommendation I make is hand-picked with the client in mind—whatever their particular passions and needs may be.
The result? An immersive itinerary that’s curated around the remarkable travel partners I trust and collaborate with, and—of course—curated to you.
Careful curation is how I approach my family’s own travels, as we’ve journeyed everywhere from the Middle East to Africa to our favorite destinations across Europe. While we always make time to simply wander, I also make sure that we don’t miss the unique experiences that define a place and allow us to explore more deeply—like soaking in the Blue Lagoon in Cyprus taking in a Broadway show and high tea in London, or touring the Pompeii with a private guide.
As an advisor, I also draw on my extensive experience living abroad in Kenya and the Middle for five years. Living overseas has gifted me with a yearning for the new and unfamiliar, a historical and cultural curiosity, and the knowledge that working with local partners for well-planned, personalized travel experiences is exponentially more valuable than just showing up hoping for the best.
