Hi, I’m Steph!

Consultant by day, pilates junkie, and all around travel enthusiast.

When I’m not saving the world one PowerPoint presentation at a time, I’m on the hunt for my next adventure.

Whether it’s a local drive to Napa, booking that plane ticket abroad, or planning the next friend-cation I’m always trying to scratch that travel itch. I grew up watching my mom run her successful travel business (Go, Laura, go!) and developed my love for travel early on.

When the 2020 global pandemic hit, I found a silver lining in isolation by exploring locally and eventually taking a 6-month stint away from San Francisco. In a world where working from home has become more of a norm, the running joke among my friends and fam is: “Where in the world is Steph today?”

After years of offering up travel tips, advice, and itineraries I decided it was time to document my experiences here with Babble on Travel. Learn from my tips, tricks, and unfiltered advice!

What’s more, I want to help you do more than dream about your favorite places around the globe. Let me help you plan your next getaway!    

Whether your ideal is gazing at the Sistine Chapel, a sunset in Mykonos, or the Big 5 on a South African Safari, you are not alone my friend—I got you! I have spent years learning, experiencing, and exploring and I’m here to help you check spots off your travel bucket list!

Let’s get packing fam!

Where did you grow up and where do you live now?

I was born and raised in the suburbs of Philly (go Birds), had a 4 year stint in Washington D.C., and now currently live in San Francisco (friendly word of advice…never call it San Fran).

What did you study in college?

I graduated from Penn State University (We Are!) with degrees in Finance and Italian.

Favorite City?

Roma, Roma, Roma! Being the only child of two Italian immigrants makes me a tad biased, I know.

Where have you traveled?

I have visited over 25 countries and want to bring you along as I continue to check places off of my ultimate bucket list.
