Travel isn't just what I do. It's how I raised my family.

I didn't come to travel advising through a brochure or a booking system. I came through a decision to give my children the most honest education I could imagine — one that included cobblestone streets, foreign languages at dinner tables, art that stopped us in our tracks, and people who showed us that the world is far bigger and more generous than we'd been told.

I homeschooled my kids and we traveled the world together. Culture, beauty, and human connection were our curriculum. Those years shaped not just who they became — but who I am as an advisor. I know what it means to travel with intention. And I know how to help you do the same.

Over the past several years I've built Encompassing Destinations into a full-service travel planning practice rooted in one belief: that the best trips are deeply personal. That means I take time to understand you before I ever recommend a hotel or build an itinerary.

I specialize in Europe — especially Italy — luxury travel, honeymoons, family adventures, and small group tours. I've stayed in the properties I recommend. I've eaten at the restaurants I suggest. I have relationships with local guides and hoteliers who treat my clients like their own. That's not something an algorithm can offer you.

Let's find your next great adventure.

I'd love to hear where you've always wanted to go. Reach out and let's start the conversation — no pressure, just possibility.
