A bit about me…

A smiling woman with white hair, wearing a pink shawl, sitting at a table with flowers around her, in a bright room with natural light.

I am stepping into the next chapter of my life and want to take you with me! As a recent empty nester, I founded The Next Chapter Travel to create a like-minded community of intelligent, adventuresome women with a desire to see the world and a taste for the finer things in life.

I’ve worked as an educator, a family travel consultant for Ciao Bambino, and a health and wellness advocate. My father was born in Ireland, which offered me the luxury of an EU passport and sparked my lifelong passion for exploring the world. I’ve traveled to over 20 countries, with experience in both travel logistics and navigating a variety of different cultures. I also spent three and half years studying and living abroad in London and Austria. While I have enjoyed extensive travels with my family over the last two decades, I am thrilled to step into THE NEXT CHAPTER of this amazing life: Curating small-group, all-women trips for my family, friends, and friends-of-friends.

Our hummingbird logo holds special meaning for me—these remarkable creatures embody joy, peace, strength, and resilience, with some species traveling thousands of miles during their seasonal migrations. In many cultures, hummingbirds represent new beginnings and good luck, something we all need as we embark on our next chapters. Like these extraordinary travelers, we're setting out on journeys that will transform and inspire us.
