Bali will open your heart in so many ways. The energy of this country is so contagious. BALI IS LOVE. Anyone I know that has been there has said the same thing. Their entire culture and religion is based on gratitude. They are the happiest humans I have ever met and we could really learn a lot from them here in the US. That is why I love Bali so much, I took such a wealth of knowledge on how to be more present and live in gratitude. On top of that Bali has the most stunning architecture, food, beaches, and shopping! It really checks all the boxes!! I promise you will fall in love with BALI!

“Grow through what you go through”

I am a firm believer that this one particular life we are walking through has a purpose for us. We experience the lows so we can celebrate the highs.

Early on in life, I was gifted the opportunity to travel to beautiful, places, Indonesia being one of them. I immersed myself in the culture, the arts and the language for a year when I was 18. This gift opened my eyes to a beautiful, unique world filled with diversity, pleasures, wonder and hardships. I never took my adventures for granted knowing I was blessed to have these experiences but also grateful to have a safe home to grow deep, healthy roots.

I’ve been married for 18 years with 3 grown boys. I focused life on the joys of motherhood and family while being an entrepreneur. Though, loving most of the moments, let’s be real, there were many times when I just wanted to pack up and travel the world that I dreamt about. I knew my time would come again one day to explore those places I have always dreamt about and perhaps be lucky enough to return to a few.

My entire life I have been a professional photographer focusing on families and children. For 7 years I documented the same mothers with children. That has to be the best project I ever did and regret stopping it.

6 years ago I added a new hat to the mix as a winter Tulip Farmer in NH growing up to 75k tulips in Greenhouse during our coldest months. It is what I like to call my ‘ikegai.’

What you love, what the world needs, what you get paid for and what you’re good at.

My word for 2025 is Manifest. I began chatting with Angie about leading trips 3 years ago when I did my 200hr ytt. Life happened, things shifted, I changed and I never followed through. This year I told myself I would manifest the life I desire, so here we go! I cannot wait to return to Bali with you! Your heart will explode, your soul will be rejuvenated. You will shine brighter then ever before!
