my values:
An unexpected corporate layoff was my wake-up call to find work that brings me joy, connection and helps others experience exactly what I love.
Today, I use the organizational and project management skills honed from my corporate career alongside my deep firsthand knowledge of global travel from living in Italy, Switzerland, and London, to backpacking Southeast Asia to build unforgettable trips.

From Corporate to Curated Travel Experiences
With my mother’s parents hailing from Torino and my father’s from Calabria, Italian culture is truly in my DNA. I have always felt a deep love for Italy's food and lifestyle, a passion that eventually led me to live and study abroad in Florence during college and keeps bringing my travels back to Italy!
Italian Roots
I hate cooking, but I love eating. Food & wine tours are my absolute favorite way to explore a new city. I guess wine is my favorite beverage, though I try not to indulge daily!
Foodie, Not a Chef
I love both hiking and relaxing on the beach; the best trips always have both. That’s why my ultimate happy places are Lake Tahoe and Hawaii!
My Happy Places
I'm a San Francisco Bay Area based travel planner extraordinaire, living with my husband (a beloved teacher and cover band guitarist). We are the proud parents of two amazing adult children who now live in NYC and Denver.
