About

California-born and raised, I split my time between LA and the Bay Area. From Mendocino to Big Sur, the CA coastline is my happy place, especially when a weekend is spent at a waterfront boutique hotel catching the sunset and stopping at my favorite restaurants and wineries. My focus on details and budget as an event manager, combined with my love of researching and exploring new destinations, has given me the perfect tools to plan your next getaway.

Travel style

I love planning trips from the beginning to the end while leaving room for spontaneity. Once I have a destination in mind, I list all of the places I'm interested in visiting, from restaurants to hotels to local culture, discovering the best route forward. I see travel as an opportunity to feel like your most present self, unplugging from the day while fully immersing yourself in new experiences. I'm drawn to places grounded in nature but also appreciate the thoughtful details of a luxurious hotel. Travel is what I love to think about, and I’m overjoyed to help others see the world.

Katherine's reviews

Katherine did an amazing job selecting, booking, and curating my trip. I am so grateful for her expertise and trust her recommendations completely. We went over what I was looking for - and were quickly able to book and move forward with the trip. In addition, she checked in right before to ensure all would go smoothly (and it did!). Thank you, Katherine!
