“The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page.”

About

After 27 years in the classroom, I realized my favorite lessons weren’t in textbooks — they were out in the world. I’ve always loved connecting people to stories, whether it’s the energy of Philadelphia’s historic streets, the quiet power of Gettysburg, or the elegance of Europe’s old-world charm.

I’m endlessly curious, a born researcher, and I get excited digging into the “why” behind every place we visit. My goal is to turn that curiosity into unforgettable travel moments — the kind that make people stop, think, and truly feel where they are.

As a teacher, I learned how to keep things organized, adapt quickly, and bring a group together. As a traveler, I bring the same heart — leading with enthusiasm, warmth, and a genuine love for discovery. I can’t wait to share that excitement and help others see the stories that live beyond the guidebook.

When I’m not exploring historic sites or planning my next adventure, you’ll probably find me on a mountain bike trail, out kayaking on a quiet lake, lost in a good book, or enjoying music — whether playing it or listening to it. I love finding beauty and rhythm in everyday life, and I think that same spirit carries into how I travel and connect with people wherever I go.
