Based in World
As the founder and lead travel advisor at JP Travel, I believe that exceptional travel experiences have the power to transform us, deepening our understanding of the world and ourselves. Long before realizing I could get paid to plan travel, I earned a joint degree in Geography and Policy at Syracuse University, followed by a Masters in Public Administration from New York University. My career has spanned social impact, technology, and design, including building and leading an award-winning creative agency recognized by Fast Company. Now, I channel my passion for thoughtful design into curating bespoke travel arrangements that bring my clients' dreams to life. I prioritize transparency, tailoring every detail to my clients' unique interests and needs, ensuring they feel confident in their travel decisions. I love sharing my unique finds and helping others maximize their time and investment. For me, travel is about seeing new things and learning about different cultures, food, history, and places. Whether it's a sabbatical in Italy, a corporate retreat in New York, or a solo trip to Mexico, I approach each journey with precision and care. I am always overly confident in my ability to pack. One of my most meaningful travel experiences was visiting Mormanno, Italy, the small medieval town in Calabria where my great-grandparents were from. Walking through the church where my great-great-grandparents married and seeing my great-grandfather's childhood home was incredibly emotional. This personal connection fuels my desire to create similarly impactful experiences for my clients.
