THE FOUNDER

MEET THE FOUNDER

With over 40 countries explored and a reputation as the go-to “booking friend,” I turned my passion for travel into a career by founding Bag & Go Travel (bagtravel.net) in 2021. My goal? To leverage the “other” side of the travel business to create seamless, unforgettable journeys.

Born and raised in Los Angeles, I bring a unique perspective to trip planning, thanks to my Master’s in Urban Planning from USC. Some of my favorite cities include Tokyo, Hong Kong, Cape Town, Vancouver, and Berlin—each inspiring my approach to crafting personalized adventures. Beyond travel, I’m a proud Lakers fan, hiking enthusiast, amateur photographer, and once even ran a debate forums website!
