I am a University of Miami graduate (Go Canes!) with a law degree from The George Washington University Law School, and have lived in the Washington area for 20 years! I adore this city and the communities that make it so special! My love of guiding began with my first job at age 15 as a tour guide at The Las Vegas Natural History Museum. From that moment, I have cultivated a keen love of travel, both on and off the beaten path, storytelling, and history. After a public service career as a Federal labor and employee relations attorney, I opened my company, as a way to share knowledge, build community, amplify community stories, and facilitate lifelong learning. As a licensed tour guide and member of the Guild of Professional Tour Guides in Washington, D.C., I combine my traveler background with my knowledge of Washington, D.C. to create a unique and bespoke experience for you! Whether you want to meander the tried-and-true paths of Washington, or see a unique side of Washington, I have you covered! I am happy to create a customized tour itinerary in Washington, D.C. for you! If you prefer a customized tour, you can contact me directly!
