Guided by the Best

I'm a native Roman, and for the past 30 years, I've been lucky to turn a few of my passions – history, archaeology, art, languages, and travel – into my daily work. I've always been a bit enamored with life, and as we explore Italy together, I'll simply invite you to enjoy the moment.

I've worked with children my entire career. I'm a certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor and have worked on a farm with individuals with special needs running summer camps and therapeutic recreation programs for 15 years. My specialty is bringing learning to life. I think having fun and engaging with the world and each other is as therapeutic and educational as it gets!

I was born in Kenya and currently reside in Nairobi. My passion for wildlife began at a young age, inspired by the animals that frequently visited our family farm. These early experiences nurtured a lifelong love for nature and storytelling. It is deeply rewarding to witness the joy and awe on our guests' faces as we turn their moments into memories… it's what motivates me every day.

Having spent almost 20 years leading Tauck groups in East and Southern Africa, I enjoy sharing my love of photography, birding, and history with the guests. One of my greatest joys about working in Africa is introducing guests to philanthropic organizations and causes that work locally to improve the lives of people and animals in the areas where we travel.
