Hi I’m Mel

Your go-to travel bestie who’s here to make your travel dreams come true!

My love for travel started when I was young, thanks to countless family trips that sparked a lifelong curiosity about the world. Since then, I’ve lived on both coasts—five years on the West Coast, a year in Denver, and now back to the east coast in my home in New Jersey. These moves gave me such a great appreciation for exploring new places, whether that’s across the country or just around the corner.

These days, as a mom to a toddler, my adventures often take me closer to home—think East Coast gems, Florida escapes, and Caribbean getaways. But no matter the destination, I love creating travel experiences that are memorable, relaxing, and tailored to fit real life (because I know how important that balance is!).

Although I recently began my journey with Fora Travel, I’ve been planning unforgettable trips for years—for friends, family, and now clients. From luxury stays to family-friendly adventures, I’ve always been the go-to person in my circle for travel advice and trip planning.

For me, travel is about more than just ticking places off a list—it’s about discovering the hidden gems, savoring the food, and experiencing each destination in a way that feels authentic. I believe the best trips are the ones that feel personal, and that’s exactly how I approach planning for my clients.

One of the biggest myths about working with a travel advisor is that it costs more. The reality? I often unlock perks like complimentary breakfast, room upgrades, and resort credits—all at no extra cost to you. On top of that, I take the stress out of planning so you can focus on what matters most: enjoying your trip.

What sets me apart is the genuine care I put into every detail. I love getting to know my clients and tailoring each trip to their style, preferences, and goals. My goal is always the same: to make your travel not just seamless, but truly special.
