I’ve had the privilege of planning countless unforgettable vacations to Africa—for families, honeymooners, and adventure seekers drawn to the call of the wild. An African safari is truly a transformational experience. There’s nothing quite like the thrill of being so close to majestic wildlife—it’s life-changing.

Every day on safari brings something new—that’s part of the magic. I love waking up to the roar of lions in the distance or watching elephants drink from a watering hole while guests relax in a nearby pool. These are the moments that stay with you forever.

During my time with American Express as an Africa Vacations Insider, I traveled to the continent every three years to maintain my status and deepen my firsthand knowledge of the region.

I take the time to truly listen to what each client envisions for their trip. Then, I collaborate with trusted, preferred partners who specialize in crafting exceptional, personalized experiences. I believe it’s essential to have reliable contacts on the ground—so clients can travel with confidence, knowing they’re in expert hands.
