Obsessed with travel

I have a passion for maximizing travel through credit cards and points. After years of researching, optimizing, and booking trips that punch well above their price tag, I turned that into a practice.

I'm a certified advisor through Fora, one of the leading travel advisor platforms, and have earned First Mate Gold — the highest tier — with Virgin Voyages. I specialize in cruises and hotels, with a particular talent for making sure every trip comes with perks most travelers don't even know to ask for.

The advisor advantage

Working with a travel advisor costs you nothing extra, but the difference in experience can be significant. Think early check-in, free breakfast, room upgrades, and VIP treatment that simply isn't available when you book directly or through an online platform.

Free to you

For cruises and hotels, working with a travel advisor is completely free to you. Advisors are compensated by the hotels and cruise lines directly.

VIP access

Clients get access to VIP amenities like early check-in, free breakfast, room upgrades, and more that aren't available booking direct or through a third-party.

In your corner

From choosing the right cabin to monitoring for price drops, you have an advocate who's tracking the details so you don't have to.
