I am passionate about creating meaningful connections with people and places worldwide through culture. I do this by maximizing travel experiences - both highbrow and lowbrow - that focus on art, food & wine and music. I like sailing, hiking, and scuba as much as checking out the latest restaurants, jazz clubs and spas. My superpower is detailed trip planning and leveraging loyalty - airlines, hotels, credit cards - to create the best travel adventures possible.

Ohau Hawaii 10 Best
Here is my top 10 list for Oahu, Hawaii - including 5 for Honolulu and 5 for the North Shore - covering arts & culture, food and drinks, adventure travel, beaches and resorts
Art Basel Miami
Art Basel Miami is the largest contemporary art fair in the US. Navigating the main fair, along with the multiple satellite fairs, museums and gallery openings, can be overwhelming. After visiting Maimi Basel for a decade, I want to share my game plan for maximizing your experience and share some highlights of the 2022 shows and special events.
Tuscany
For my long-delayed 50th birthday (2+ years due to Covid), I finally realized my dream vacation of bringing 12 friends together for a week in a villa in Tuscany.
The QC NY is a brand new destination spa that opened on NYC's Governors Island in March 2022, and I was lucky enough to check it out! The QC Group - which operates 13 spas in Italy and France - created their first US outpost at the renovated army barracks on Governors Island, called QC NY.
