I’m a journalist by trade, storyteller by nature, and traveler by addiction. I swapped my suit for a suitcase to lead my family outside their comfort zone’s and into full-time travel.

I’m a Michigan girl, raised in the country, where (true story) my dad would ask me to catch snakes in the yard. I loved growing up in a small town, but jumped at every opportunity I had to explore the world.

Sharing my passion for culture, service, and animals with Jonah, Jude and (as a creator) the world, has been an enormous privilege. I hope to inspire others to live empathetically and authentically.
