Planning meaningful group travel.

Creating memories that last.

A few years ago, a dear friend shared how she helped others plan vacations—and something inside me lit up. That sounds like fun, I thought. It felt like the perfect blend of my love for discovery and my heart for serving people well. That spark grew into Traveling Traditions, a business built on intention, connection, and the stories we create with the people we love.

I grew up in North Dakota, where community runs deep, traditions are treasured, and people show up for each other. That mindset—practical, warm, loyal, and grounded—shaped not only who I am, but how I care for my clients. Many of the travelers I serve have those same values, and I understand what they want: honest guidance, meaningful experiences, and travel that feels intentional rather than trendy.

I know the feeling of planning a dream vacation while watching snow fall outside the window.

I know the joy of escaping long winters for sunshine and connection.
And I know how important family, faith, and friendship are in North Dakota life.

ND taught me that travel is not just about seeing the world—it is about sharing the world with the people who matter most.

Travel Becomes Part of You

The name honors the rhythm of my upbringing—lefse-making days, cross-country road trips, and memories woven from simple moments. Traditions are part of our identity, and travel can become one of those traditions too. It is a way to celebrate milestones, deepen relationships, and build stories your family will share for generations.

With the support of the Gifted Travel Network, trusted global partners, and expert training—including GTN’s MBA program—I now help couples, families, and friend groups design unforgettable journeys. My specialty is group travel, including destination weddings, celebration trips, hosted river cruises, and “come-with-me” adventures.
