About

Hi, I’m Kevin! I'm a travel expert, storyteller, and Trip School Bootcamp certified Tour Director with a deep love for sharing unforgettable adventures with people from around the world. Having led adult and student tours all over the US from cities rich with history to rugged National Parks, I’ve mastered the art of leading seamless, multi-day travel experiences that balance structure and spontaneity. Whether it's wine tasting in the countryside, hiking scenic mountain trails, or uncovering the rich cultural layers of a colorful city, I’m in my element when guiding others through the thrill of discovery. I’m known for being highly organized, adaptable, and energetic. Someone who thrives on managing logistics, bringing people together, and making sure every traveler feels seen, included, and cared for. I believe travel should be joyful and safe for everyone, which is why I pour intention into every itinerary I touch. Outside of tours, I’m a Certified Sommelier, mountain climber, and lifelong Swiftie who’s passionate about building community and celebrating authenticity through travel. Always excited to connect with others in the travel and tourism space, whether you're a fellow tour director or guide, travel company, or just someone who loves adventure as much as I do.
