About Us

I was born and raised just outside of Seattle. After graduating college with a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing, I decided to take a leap of faith and move to Stockholm, Sweden. I became an Au Pair for a lovely family with 4 kids with whom I still keep in contact today. It was in Stockholm that I realized there is an entire world outside of the U.S. just waiting to be explored. I decided to start traveling to different cities and countries on the weekends and during holidays, usually solo. I began to understand the art of navigating a foreign city with nothing but a small backpack and an open mind. I’ve ice fished in Finland, rode a camel through the Sahara Desert in Morocco, and ate so much gelato in Italy I made myself sick. After each trip, I would come home feeling more energized and confident in myself.

Flash forward a few years, I am now back in Seattle living with my wonderful husband, Frank. I am so lucky to have found someone with the same sense of adventure and outlook on life. Outside of travelling, I love playing with Frank’s expensive camera equipment, cuddling with our cats, Finn and Mia, and I am also an aspiring doula.

Growing up in California, I never ventured out of my comfy bubble. I got a small taste of what was beyond that comfort by moving out of the Bay Area and going to college in San Diego. My curiosity grew and after graduation I made the move across the country to the east coast to see what I could find. What I learned was that the size of things were more accessible. The states were smaller and I was able to experience little pockets of unique culture. The ocean was even smaller and suddenly the rest of the world was a short flight away. It was early on during my first multi country trip, with only a small backpack full of clothes and a camera, where I found myself sitting on a bench in Capri, an island off the west coast of Italy. I realized that I got myself there, exploring a country I had never been to. It was exciting and there was no stopping.

In recent years I’ve called Seattle home with my wife, Jami. We’ve got an entire world and a lifetime of adventure ahead of us.
