After a lifetime of looking up to TV travel personalities like Rick Steves, Samantha Brown, and Anthony Bourdain, and watching every travel themed movie from European Vacation, to Before Sunrise, and Eat, Pray, Love, I got into travel coaching specializing in helping other busy career moms reconnect and bond with their teens through strategic 1-on-1 trips tailored just for them.

As a Central Texas wife and mother of 3 kids, I discovered firsthand the magic of focused parent-child travel for tearing down walls and facilitating deep connections with our teens that can only happen through 1:1 travel.

In addition to the intense bonding, you also open your child's eyes to an entirely new world of possibilities for their future. The global empathy and outlook changes forever in ways a classroom can never match.

Since taking our own three children on "Mom and Me" trips, I've guided numerous family, friends and coworkers through planning their own transformative family trips. My greatest joy comes from hearing their stories of how shared travel unlocked completely new dimensions in their relationships with teens and young adults.

Professionally, I leveraged over 25 years of experience managing complex, multi-million dollar projects and leading cross-functional teams in the high tech sector. This gave me a knack for navigating logistics and an ease working with clients to bring their visions to life.

My own journey to becoming a travel coach started when I finally had my first trip to Europe in my 40s with our oldest daughter. The bonding and memories sparked a deep need to ensure the same expierence and bonding with each of our two boys. After successfully planning trips that strengthened bonds with my own kids, I knew I had to share these powerful experiences with more families.

Now, I combine my project & people skills with my personal insight as a parent to make travel dreams a reality for busy mothers everywhere. My method equips families with lifelong travel skills focusing on connection over simply tourism.

If you feel yourself losing touch with your maturing teens and young adults, contact me to rediscover each other in profound ways - one adventure at a time.
