About Courtney
Growing up as the daughter of a flight attendant, travel has always been central to Courtney's life. From domestic journeys at a young age to crisscrossing the globe in college—exploring sought-after safari destinations and cultural hubs in Southeast Asia—she developed an early appreciation for transformative travel experiences. Her extensive safari experience, including memorable weeks in Botswana's pristine wilderness, sparked a deep expertise in Africa's luxury lodge scene and wildlife destinations.
After launching her career in New York City's competitive advertising world, it was her own honeymoon (planned by a travel advisor) that inspired her to combine her passion for adventure with her talent for meticulous planning.
A Personal Approach to Luxury Travel
For Courtney, being a travel advisor is deeply personal. Her expertise has evolved alongside her life stages—from crafting romantic escapes and celebratory adventures for newlyweds to now specializing in sophisticated family travel as a mother of three.
One of her greatest strengths is demonstrating that luxury family travel isn't just possible—it's transformative. Whether designing seamless multi-generational journeys or introducing children to new cultures through carefully curated experiences, Courtney understands how to create trips that work for every family member.
