I've been traveling since before I could walk; literally. My first flight was before my first birthday, and by age 13 I was flying solo. Growing up, travel was simply part of life. Exploring new places, experiencing different cultures, and visiting family scattered across the world from Guam to Canada to New York and somewhere along the way I fell completely in love with the feeling of arriving somewhere new.

Travel was therapy. It was connection. It was how my family stayed close across continents.

When I started my own family, I made sure it stayed that way. Planning vacations, cruises, and group trips for 50+ cousins, aunts, and uncles. I was in my element. Friends started asking me to plan their trips too. That's when I realized: I wanted to do this for everyone!
