Michelle

Hello, I'm

My Story

Travel has been the rhythm of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a Navy family, I learned early that the world is wide and worth exploring. That curiosity carried me through every chapter of my life, from coastal moves and long ocean crossings to years of discovering new places with my husband, daughter, and grandchildren. When I stepped into retirement, I realized I wasn’t meant to be still.

Designing trips for the people I love had always been second nature, and it soon became clear that it was more than a pastime. It was the beginning of a new chapter. Savor Every Journey grew from a desire to stay connected, purposeful, and creative while helping others experience the joy travel has always brought into my life.

Because Moments Matter

Plan your journey

What It Means to Work Together

When we plan a trip together, you are not booking a vacation. You are creating a chapter of your life story. I take the time to understand your values, rhythms, tastes, and the memories you hope to create. I blend cultural insight with logistical expertise, connecting you with places and experiences that feel meaningful, enriching, and beautifully designed.

Whether you’re dreaming of a villa in Italy, a once-in-a-lifetime African safari, a milestone celebration, or a restorative escape closer to home, my role is to make the entire experience feel joyful, signature, and seamless. This isn’t just travel planning. It's care. It's intention. It's artistry. It's connection. It's legacy-building.

Traveler Stories

Kristine

“We have traveled with Michelle several times, notably in Tuscany, Italy and the Provence region in France. Michelle’s attention to detail and high-quality itinerary curation makes for amazing travel moments and memories. She listens to understand, asks questions to get to the heart of what would make your trip next-level, does extensive research, and identifies the perfect components of every trip, every time.”

Kara

I had the best experience planning my Liechtenstein hiking trip (plus a few days in Switzerland) with Savor Every Journey. Michelle is polished and thoughtful, while being totally down-to-earth and honestly, she’s hilarious in the best way. My itinerary was spot-on, the hotels were lovely, and everything ran smoothly so I could simply enjoy myself. I’ll definitely work with her again!

Megan

I couldn't have asked for a better partner than Michelle in planning our recent trip to Italy. In addition to her extensive knowledge of the area, she worked quickly and efficiently to meet our tight timeline. She asked meaningful questions to understand our preferred pace and the overall goals. I can't wait to plan our next trip with Michelle!

Brittany

Michelle has a true gift for transforming ideas into something exceptional. Her attention to detail, warmth, and sense of purpose shine through in everything she does. Anyone who works with her will feel completely taken care of. Look forward to planning our families next trip.
