The Journey That Started It All
My love for travel didn't begin in a guidebook:  it started with a simple desire to see what lay beyond the familiar. Over the years, that curiosity has taken me from the Midnight Sun in Norway to the raw, untouched beauty of New Zealand's fjords. I've navigated the many areas of Russia, traveled the country by train to see hidden lands and national parks, wandered cobblestone streets across Europe, and stood in awe on one of Alaska's  glaciers.

But here's what I've learned: the most meaningful trips aren't just about where you go. They're about how you feel when you get there—and who helps you make it happen.

Today, I specialize in designing luxury travel experiences for families who want to explore the world without the stress of planning every detail. I handle the logistics so you can focus on what matters: connection, wonder, and those moments that become stories you'll tell for years.

What I Do Best
Luxury Cruises/Expeditions – From Alaska's Inside Passage to Antarctica's icy horizons, I design cruise experiences that balance adventure with comfort. I know which ships offer the best family suites, which itineraries deliver the most authentic experiences, and how to secure the perks that elevate your journey.

Alaska & Polar Expeditions – Few places inspire awe like Alaska. Whether you're watching whales breach in Glacier Bay or standing on the deck as your ship navigates through ice, I create itineraries that capture the magic of the far north—without the overwhelm.

Private Guided Experiences – Sometimes the best way to see a place is with a local expert by your side. I arrange private tours that let you explore at your own pace, skip the crowds, and dive deeper into the destinations that fascinate you.

Train Travel – I'm currently exploring the art of luxury rail journeys across the US and Canada and beyond. There's something powerful about watching landscapes unfold through a train window—reaching places you'd never see from a highway, all while enjoying a level of comfort that makes the journey itself unforgettable.

Why I Love Working With Busy Moms
Because I get it. You're juggling schedules, managing logistics, and somehow trying to plan a vacation that works for everyone—from your adventurous eight-year-old to your teenager who just wants Wi-Fi.

You deserve a trip where someone else handles the details. Where you don't lose hours comparing cruise cabins or wondering if the excursion you booked is actually age-appropriate. Where you can trust that every piece of your itinerary has been thoughtfully designed with your family's needs in mind.

I work with busy moms who want extraordinary experiences without the exhausting planning process. You shouldn't have to become a travel expert to take your family on an unforgettable trip—that's my job.

How I Make It Effortless
I don't just book trips. I design experiences rooted in years of personal travel, trusted industry connections, and a deep understanding of what makes luxury travel truly worthwhile. I know which cruise lines offer the best kids' programs. I know when to book, how to negotiate upgrades, and which destinations deliver on their promises.

Most importantly, I make the process easy. You share your vision, I handle the rest, and you show up ready to make memories.

If you're ready to explore the world without the overwhelm, let's talk. Your next adventure is closer than you think.
