About:
I’ve called New York City home since 2011 and have been a licensed NYC tour guide since 2022. Before guiding, I worked as a creative director in advertising, a career that fueled my love of storytelling, which I now bring to every tour.
Through my one-woman company, I craft experiences that blend history, pop culture, and sometimes food, offering visitors an insider’s view of the city I proudly call home. I find deep joy in helping people connect with a place, whether it’s their first visit or their fiftieth. I have a particular interest in the untold stories (like those of women to other underrepresented communities) that have shaped this incredible city, all shared with a sense of joy and curiosity.
Having lived in the Flatiron District, Bushwick, and Hell’s Kitchen, I offer insider knowledge and a local’s perspective.
Come explore with me, and let’s uncover the stories that make New York truly unforgettable!
