Luxury travel should be an unforgettable experience that opens minds and inspires connection, not just a collection of landmarks and fancy-but-could-be-anywhere hotels.
It should be...

the
PHILOSOPHY
Some might say travel is a luxury. I say it’s a necessity.
I strongly believe in the power of travel to make us more open, more present, more renewed, and more connected—better humans who create a better world.
I make travel effortless, luxurious, and unforgettable so you can best experience its transformative power.
the
PERSPECTIVE
I’M A GLOBALIST… AND THAT’S A GOOD THING
I’m also just as interested in all the things that happen around travel—what to pack, which movies won’t cause airplane crying (it’s a real thing, I swear!), how to take great photos, staying healthy on the road, what recipes will transport you right back—as I am in where to stay, what to see and do, where to eat, and how to put it all together.
the
APPROACH
UNIQUELY COMPREHENSIVE, PERSONALIZED TRAVEL PLANNING
I leverage my broad interests, global knowledge, eclectic resources, and discerning taste to identify ALL of the things that make a place unique.
By tapping into my “Whole Woman, Whole Destination” perspective, I curate unforgettable travel experiences that touch all parts of your multi-faceted life and interests.

Inspiration
This is the “mood board,” so to speak: gathering ideas and inspiration, clarifying your #trippgoals, playing with possibilities, and creating a concrete plan.
Exploration
Here’s where it all comes together: by anticipating your needs, arranging the details, and curating recommendations, I leave you free to be in the moment and have those unforgettable travel experiences.
Transformation
You’re coming home with new ideas, connections, perspectives, and memories—let's keep that journey going long after you land.
Hola! I'm Stephanie
And fortunately for you, I’m not just an experienced traveler—I’m an award-winning luxury travel expert.
I’ve been in the industry since 2007 and spent 11 years working at one of the best private tour operators in the world. I’ve planned customized trips for HUNDREDS of demanding, discerning clients (think Succession, but nicer). In fact, I was named a Top Travel Specialist in Condé Nast Traveler in 2021 and 2022.
But whenever I was researching my own trips, I saw a lot of generic travel advice that just focused on fancy hotels or hot-right-now restaurants and missed the rest of the experience—or worse, was crowdsourced from a complete stranger.
THAT'S EXACTLY WHY I STARTED theVIATRIX
I know how demanding travel planning can be (hola, it’s my job!), and I know how hard it can be to find good travel advice.
So now, I’m putting all of my skills and expertise to work for YOU.
I curate luxurious, experiential trips for cool, curious, creative travelers just like you.
Because you deserve more than just a vacation—
you deserve a sense of place
Because you just want someone who GETS you—but also knows what they’re talking about—to tell you where to go, how to put it all together, and what to see and do in each place.
And to VIP you at the hotels.
Well you’re in luck, my friend, because that someone is me!
