Education

I am a certified travel agent with The Wander Network, and have a certificate in Hospitality and Tourism Management from Florida Atlantic University.

I also have a dual degree in International Affairs and Media & Communication Studies from Florida State University, and a Master’s degree in Global Marketing Management from Boston University.

Why did I create Nerdventures?

Growing up I was a voracious reader, and was constantly immersing myself in the fantastical worlds created by J.K. Rowling, C.S. Lewis, and the like. I always wanted to experience these places for myself, but noticed that it was almost impossible to find someone to help me plan a trip to those locations. After seeing my mom succeed as a travel agent, I was inspired to create my own business, where I could help people experience the places that either inspired or were featured in their favorite movies, books, & video games.

Did you know that J.R.R. Tolkien found inspiration for Middle Earth in Switzerland? Or that many of the castles shown in Game of Thrones were filmed at locations you can visit yourself? Or maybe you want to spend Halloween in Dracula’s castle in Romania? With Nerdventures, this is all possible!

What kind of trips can I book with Nerdventures?

Although I specialize in pop-culture travel, I can manage all sorts of trips, including family vacations, honeymoons, bachelor/bachelorettes, cruises, land tours, and more! Just send me a note to get started!
