I know that travel is one of life’s greatest teachers! I have blended my passion and rich experiences as a seasoned traveler with over thirty years’ experience in education to create my signature LEARN Through Travel Program.

With it, I’ve combined extensive research and inspiring stories to help curious people like you discover what you can do before, during, and after travel to bring more meaning, connection, and understanding to your journeys, and your life. I am also an expert in travel planning, and I share tips and travel skills that will empower you to master these valuable abilities for yourself.

Let’s work together so you can travel more and travel better!

We enhance our brief lives through our study, we deepen our travel experiences and connections, and we entertain ourselves.
