What do you do?
I turn travelers’ dreams into reality. Whether it’s your first safari or a return trip to Africa, I tailor each experience to match your interests and personality, creating unforgettable memories. With a passion for crafting unique journeys, I ensure every trip is nothing short of extraordinary.

What is your favorite part about your job?
The best part of my job is learning about people’s travel passions and working with them to create a memorable safari adventure. My own safari remains one of the best trips of my life.

Besides safari, what has been your favorite past travel experience?
My favorite travel experience was a recent trip to Morocco with my husband and two children. Seeing the kids immerse themselves in the vibrant atmosphere of Marrakech and then run up and down the massive sand dunes of the Sahara was truly priceless.

What’s next on your travel bucket list?
Climbing Kilimanjaro!

My favorite safari animal is baby elephants. There’s nothing quite like witnessing the bond between mother and baby, along with the watching their delightful clumsiness and playful nature.

My insider travel tip: Do as I say, not as I do…. I’ve missed far too many flights!
