About
California-born and raised, I split my time between LA and the Bay Area. From Mendocino to Big Sur, the CA coastline is my happy place, especially when a weekend is spent at a waterfront boutique hotel catching the sunset and stopping at my favorite restaurants and wineries. My focus on details and budget as an event manager, combined with my love of researching and exploring new destinations, has given me the perfect tools to plan your next getaway.
Travel style
I love planning trips from the beginning to the end while leaving room for spontaneity. Once I have a destination in mind, I list all of the places I'm interested in visiting, from restaurants to hotels to local culture, discovering the best route forward. I see travel as an opportunity to feel like your most present self, unplugging from the day while fully immersing yourself in new experiences. I'm drawn to places grounded in nature but also appreciate the thoughtful details of a luxurious hotel. Travel is what I love to think about, and I’m overjoyed to help others see the world.

Katherine's reviews
Katherine helped my wife and I book a last minute babymoon after our original plan to go to Big Sur and Carmel was cancelled due to weather. She was quick to recommend San Ysidro as a wonderful option! She booked us a beautiful room and even was able to get us a hotel credit that we used during our stay during a tight timeframe! We recommend her for any vacation need!

Everything Katherine did was exceptional. We had zero issues with transportation, check-in, or the tours we booked. The restaurants she booked for us in Florence- Giostra and Gobbi 13 were amazing and wouldn't have changed a thing. The only thing we wish we had was more time in Florence :).
