I believe that travel should be more than just an escape from the everyday—it should be a way to transform how you see the world, how you connect with other cultures, and how you experience life with the people you love. That’s why I started Tattered Atlas, a travel company focused on creating immersive, meaningful journeys. My goal is to take the stress out of travel planning and replace it with excitement, discovery, and a sense of awe.

Through my personal travels and time living abroad, I’ve seen firsthand what makes a trip truly unforgettable. It’s the small, unexpected moments, the personal touches, the off-the-beaten-path gems, and the connection with the local culture that leave a lasting impact. These are the kinds of experiences I create for my clients, making sure that each itinerary feels personal, authentic, and designed specifically for them.

• More Than a Checklist: When I design a trip, I’m not just ticking boxes on an itinerary. I’m here to create a curated experience that’s built entirely around you. I get to know what excites you, what inspires you, and what you want to remember years from now. Then, I take care of every detail, whether it’s finding the perfect boutique hotel in Tuscany or arranging a private vineyard tour in Argentina’s wine country, I make sure your experience is seamless from start to finish.
• Tailored to Your Travel Style: Every traveler is different, and that’s why I don’t believe in cookie-cutter trips. Whether you want a luxury honeymoon with a side of adventure, an immersive journey through local food and culture, or an off-the-beaten-path expedition in a remote destination, I tailor each itinerary to fit your unique travel style., I tailor each itinerary based on your preferences. I specialize in crafting trips that are immersive and thoughtfully balanced, giving you the chance to relax and explore without missing out on the best your destination has to offer.
• Immersive, Authentic Experiences: My clients crave deeper, more meaningful connections with the places they visit. That’s why I work with trusted local experts to curate exclusive, behind-the-scenes experiences that make you feel like a traveler, not just a tourist. Imagine learning about the ancient art of wine-making in Georgia (yes, the country!), hiking through the hidden trails of Southeast Asia, or exploring local food markets with a chef in Morocco, all while knowing you’re in the best hands.
• Stress-Free, Start to Finish: I take pride in handling everything, including accommodations, transfers, private guides, and local experiences so you can simply enjoy your trip. My job is to make sure all the little details are covered, even the ones you haven’t thought of. From personalized itineraries to 24/7 concierge service while you’re on the ground, I’m always here to ensure everything runs smoothly and give you peace of mind. Whether it’s managing a delayed flight, last-minute reservations, or even finding that perfect spot for a sunset proposal, I’ve got you covered.
• Global Expertise: With extensive personal travel experience and industry certifications, I bring a wealth of knowledge to every trip I plan. I understand the nuances of luxury travel, from the best time of year to visit Southeast Asia to the hidden gems in the Mediterranean that most tourists miss. My clients trust me to provide insider access and expertise that elevate their journeys.

The most memorable trips come from detailed planning and genuine expertise. If you’re looking for a luxury travel experience that’s carefully crafted and unique to you, I’d love to be your go-to advisor. Let’s start planning your next adventure!
