I’m the founder of Appellation Travel, a full-service travel advisory based in Marin County, California, where I specialize in crafting custom adventures for discerning travelers who crave authentic experiences. With 62 countries under my belt and years working for major active travel companies, I’ve built my business on deep client relationships and trusted partnerships with unique destinations you won’t find on typical booking sites. My expertise spans safaris, European explorations, culinary escapes, and honeymoons—all designed to create seamless journeys that focus on how you feel when you reach your destination, not just where you’re going!
