Expedition: Bucket List
I'm a professional travel correspondent and recognized expert on private islands, expeditions, cruises, luxury hotels and resorts. I travel the world constantly, expanding my knowledge, connections and experiences to make your dreams come true.
Whether it’s a gastronomic weekend in Paris, a tropical getaway, a helicopter ski trip, the North Pole in 3 days, 5 ways to see Antartica, a World Cruise or circumnavigation by Private Jet, I know how to make it happen and the people who will be taking care of you along the way.
As a Virtuoso ultraluxe travel advisor, I have first hand on site knowledge of hundreds of luxury hotels, resorts, cruises and tours and thousands of personal relationships with owners and managers. This unique access means I can open doors that you didn't know existed and guarantee you receive the highest vip status available worldwide.
As an editor for the largest tourism industry publisher, I educate thousands of travel advisors and their clients based upon my personal visits and observations. I write the reviews the travel agents use, get your information from the source.
I’ve managed special events and conferences for decades and can help you find the perfect venue for your wedding, conference or incentive event, facilitating everything from site selection to RFP and contract negotiation, ensuring you receive the most favorable rates, terms and comps.
