Leveraging my life-long travel passion, experience and industry network, I design and book customized trips that deliver value, lifetime memories and minimize issues.

I design your trip as if it were my own, and am your advocate through all stages of your trip.

My love affair with travel dates back to when my family moved to Australia when I was four years old. We went on to live in Brazil and the UK, every year taking trips to new destinations.

Back in the U.S., I earned Bachelors and Masters degrees at the University of Florida, with additional studies in France, Austria and Brazil.

The summer of 1974 I lived with a lovely family on a remote island of Norway on a scholarship with the Experiment in International Living. This, along with my family co-buying a condo in Cancun Mexico (my first time to the condo there were only 3 hotels and still Mayan villages) fueled my love for international, adventure and nature.

My career spanned working internationally for IBM, Time Warner Cable, Turner Broadcasting and Conservation International and then the travel industry.

Dovetailing my love of travel is a passion for languages, including Portuguese, French, Spanish, German and Swedish and a bit of a spaghetti Italian that somehow works.

Intrigued by the world since childhood, I have traveled to some 80 countries…many several times. From discovering grand cities to delving deep into the wilderness, I am a born explorer and love to help others discover the world and their dreams.

I like to work with partners who exhibit respect for the environment and embody a conservation ethic.
