I am a leader in the culinary and cultural travel sector, with nearly three decades of experience shaping immersive, food‑focused travel experiences worldwide. My career began at Ginkgo Press—publisher of the award‑winning Eat Smart Culinary Travel Guides—where I helped expand the company into a recognized provider of culturally rich culinary travel programs. Through this work, I established Eat Smart as a respected brand within specialty travel, blending publishing, program development, and global partnerships.

Today, I serve as a luxury travel advisor within the Global Travel Collection, creating bespoke itineraries that integrate culinary exploration, cultural insight, and exceptional service. As a longstanding member of ASTA and an affiliated Virtuoso advisor, I am committed to professional excellence and to advancing the culinary travel category within the broader travel industry.
