Luxury Travel Advisor | Private & Bespoke Travel
I have been designing exceptional travel experiences since 2005, specializing in luxury travel and the art of curating truly bespoke itineraries. As Managing Director of Porter Lifestyle, I work with discerning travelers who value personalized service, exclusive access, and thoughtfully designed journeys that reflect their individual style and interests.My expertise lies in creating seamless, high-touch travel experiences, from refined resort stays to private aviation, yacht charters, and custom itineraries built entirely from the ground up. Every journey I design is intentionally curated, balancing elevated accommodations, meaningful experiences, and effortless execution, so clients can travel with confidence and ease.Sun-soaked destinations are at the heart of my specialty. I am a Certified Hawaiian Islands Specialist and have extensive first-hand knowledge of Hawaii, the Baja Peninsula, and the South Pacific. I have traveled to Mexico more than 100 times, allowing me to offer deep insight into its luxury resorts, private villas, hidden gems, and off-the-beaten-path experiences. In the South Pacific, I specialize primarily in Fiji and Tahiti, crafting itineraries that highlight the region’s unparalleled natural beauty, cultural richness, and world-class luxury.As a true sun lover, I am especially drawn to destinations that celebrate water, beaches, and relaxed sophistication. Some of my favorite beach and water destinations I have personally experienced include the British Virgin Islands, Formentera in Spain, and Bora Bora, each offering its own unique blend of beauty, tranquility, and exclusivity. My dream destination is Australia, a place I continue to study and look forward to exploring in depth.Earlier in my career, I spent many years as a destination wedding specialist, coordinating complex, multi-layered celebrations in extraordinary locations. While destination weddings are no longer the primary focus at Porter Lifestyle, this background has shaped my meticulous attention to detail, logistical expertise, and ability to manage highly personalized travel experiences with grace and precision.Today, my focus is on luxury leisure travel for clients seeking bespoke, curated journeys designed around privacy, comfort, and authentic experiences. Whether planning an intimate island escape, a private yacht adventure, or a once-in-a-lifetime itinerary, my goal is always the same: to create travel that feels effortless, exclusive, and entirely personal.
