Courtney is a true adventurer at heart, always seeking out new experiences and destinations that push her beyond her comfort zone. She doesn’t just travel—she immerses herself in every place she visits, connecting with the people, culture, and landscapes in a way that makes each journey unforgettable. “The best trips open your mind to new cultures and ways of life. I always come back feeling renewed and energized, ready to share my passion for travel with my clients.”
Drawn to destinations that blend wildlife and culture, Africa holds a special place in her heart. Growing up watching National Geographic, Steve Irwin, and Jack Hanna, Courtney’s love for nature and conservation runs deep. “It’s so fulfilling to combine two passions—wildlife conservation and travel.” On a recent trip to Rwanda, she had the chance to give back by planting a tree in Volcanoes National Park as part of the country’s reforestation efforts.
Her must-have travel essential? Her camera. “I love photography, and while it’s important to put your phone down and be in the moment, I also enjoy capturing experiences that bring my travels to life. My home is filled with favorite memories and keepsakes from past adventures.”
Some of her most unforgettable moments include a hot air balloon ride in Tanzania, hiking Torres del Paine in Patagonia, Chile with her husband, frog-spotting in Costa Rica when her son was just 8 months old, and trekking to see gorillas in Rwanda. Now, she’s passing on her adventurous spirit to her two young sons—both of whom had passports by 4 months old and collected their first stamps before turning 1.
Her bucket list continues to grow, with Kenya, New Zealand, and the Galápagos at the top. “I can’t wait until my boys are old enough for the Galápagos. They already share my love for wildlife, and I hope to inspire in them the same passion for travel.”
Courtney’s best advice for fellow explorers? “Be flexible and leave time for leisure. Some of the best travel moments happen when you step away from schedules and just embrace the experience.”
