Meet Lauren - Owner | Lead Travel Designer
Hi, I’m Lauren! Originally from Mississippi, I grew up in Tennessee and moved to Dallas, TX in 2013 with my husband. By day, I’m a part-time Pharmacist specializing in oncology at a large hospital here in Dallas/Fort Worth. In 2019, I discovered my passion for designing travel experiences, and what started as helping friends and family grew into a full-blown career. I’ve always loved travel, and when I became a travel advisor, everything just clicked!
I’ve visited Mexico more times than I can count, staying at a wide range of resorts. With over 200 options in the Riviera Maya alone, I’m confident I can find the perfect fit for you! Mexico is one of my favorite destinations to plan for, and I specialize in destination weddings at all-inclusive resorts in both Mexico and the Caribbean. I’m certified through Destination Wedding University and a WOW Specialist.
During pharmacy school, I had the opportunity to study abroad in Thailand for six weeks, living in Chiang Mai and Khon Kaen. I’ve also traveled extensively across Europe, New Zealand, Namibia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru, and Mexico. As a pharmacist, I’m detail-oriented (some might say type-A!), efficient, and love great communication—plus, I’m always excited to help you explore destinations that are off the beaten path.
Some of my favorite European countries include Greece, Italy, Switzerland, Spain, Portugal, and Croatia. I can’t wait to check off more countries from my list and continue traveling with my husband, Jarad, and our little girl, Charlie!
Thanks to my partnerships with Departure Lounge and Virtuoso, I’m able to offer you and your family exclusive VIP treatment, often with extra perks that enhance your travel experience!

Where to next? I’ve just returned from Mexico, Anguilla, and Namibia. Up next, I’ll be heading to the brand-new SLS Playa Mujeres, followed by a Caribbean getaway with Explora Journeys. I’m also looking forward to trips to Slovenia and Italy this September!
