About

Adventurer who loves exploring and being on the move. I am a designer and mother of three – and four if you include the pup! My family and I share a passion for traveling, design and eating at the best restaurants.

Home airports

NYC or Newark – whatever works.

My travel style

I love to try different places and not follow the masses. I enjoy finding creative experiences and shops that not everyone knows about. Not into tourist attractions – I’d rather eat, drink and shop like the locals do.

Recently returned from:

  • Surfing in Costa Rica; they don’t use wetsuits.

  • Safari in South Africa where I almost got trampled by an elephant.

  • Singing in Nashville. I love that everyone is a musician there.

  • Shopping in Argentina where I purchased some of my favorite finds during travel

  • Beaches of Forte Dei Marmi – it doesn’t get better than this!

Dreaming of:

  • Japan.

  • Australia.

  • Copenhagen.

  • Anywhere I haven’t been.

One thing I can't travel without...

I don’t need much, but I do need many types of shoes. 

Two truths, one lie:

  1. I zip lined in Costa Rica with my two friends clipped onto me and we had to dodge birds.

  2. My friends and I had water poured on us after leaving a club in Italy for being too loud.

  3. I heli-snowboarded in Alaska.
