I鈥檓 originally from the U.S. but have spent the last several years making a life here in M茅rida, Mexico. After living in places like New Orleans, New York, and Barcelona, I fell in love with the Yucat谩n for its mix of history, culture, and community.

My background is in hospitality and construction, so I鈥檝e always been drawn to building things and making people feel at home. These days, I manage properties in M茅rida Centro and spend a lot of time helping friends, neighbors, and newcomers settle into life here.

I鈥檓 also passionate about food. Through Chef Wanderlust Productions, I offer everything from weekly meal plans and private cooking to special dinners and catered events 鈥� always focused on bold, soulful flavors that highlight local ingredients.

What I love most about M茅rida is the pace of life and the people 鈥� both the locals and the growing expat community. If you鈥檙e new here (or thinking about making the move), I鈥檓 always happy to connect, share what I鈥檝e learned, and swap stories over a good meal or mezcal.
