About
I grew up in Maui and spent my childhood visiting family in Japan. I previously worked in the restaurant industry and that strengthened my love for culinary travel. I like delving into a destination and taking my time. I enjoy helping clients travel off the beaten path and adding spaciousness to their trips.

So grateful we booked with Sequoia! She found the perfect spot for us that met all my asks -- a small and chic boutique hotel near the beach in a quiet area of South Beach. Not only that, but she also got us a great deal, hooked us up with a room upgrade, a $100 food & bev credit, and a complimentary bottle of wine. And she gave us a great restaurant recommendation to boot.
