As an independent travel professional, I work for you, not the travel industry. I am recognized by nationwide travel consortia, but not their employee.

This means I will curate locations, lodging, and activities to create a trip that matches your desires and not what a hotel or travel company wants you to be sold.

My past clients have included couples, families, “girlfriend” groups, grandparent and grandchild trips, church groups, school groups, multi-generational family trips, and folks looking for solo time away. Your trip should be enjoyable for everyone on it; I ensure that each person's interests and needs are woven into the itinerary.

Let me take care of the work of researching locations, booking activities, and creating itineraries so that you can focus on making memories!

Fun Things About Me

Some of my favorite places to travel are Australia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Spain, Tanzania, Pisgah, N.C., and the national parks of the U.S. and Canada.

My husband and I have two children: one who loves cities, and one who loves nature. Needless to say, I am accustomed to balancing the desires of multiple people into a single trip that everyone will enjoy!

We have two rescue dogs who will happily travel wherever the family can take them.
