My journey with Africa began the day I met Jay—and I’ve been completely in love with the magic of this continent ever since. From walking safaris in Kenya and floating through the Okavango Delta in a mokoro, to biking through the winelands of South Africa and trekking with gorillas in Uganda, every experience has deepened my connection to this place—and inspired the way I now help others experience it.

I’m no longer working as a Labor & Delivery nurse, though that part of my life taught me so much about presence, intuition, and care. These days, I’m fully immersed in Wander Africa. I spend my time curating seamless journeys, solving logistics puzzles (which I secretly love), and making sure every detail is thoughtfully handled from start to finish.

I’m happiest when I’m outside—working in the yard, going for long walks around our neighborhood, or digging into our vegetable garden. I live as sustainably as I can and keep a growing collection of herbs in our kitchen. Planning and organizing are my love language. Yoga grounds me (I completed teacher training years ago), and good food, deep friendships, and meaningful conversations fill me up.

But what brings me the most joy these days is sharing it all with our son—seeing the world through his eyes, whether we’re at home in the mountains of North Carolina or deep in the wild somewhere in Africa.

Wander Africa is more than just what we do—it’s who we are. And I’m so grateful you’ve found your way to us.
