Having done advanced research in both Florence and Rome, specializing in Renaissance history and the ancient Etruscan civilization, I benefited from learning out in the field and living history. It is now my great fortune to share my knowledge and passion for Italian history, art, architecture and culture through private walks of the eternal city and freelance travel writing. My tours are recommended by the United States Embassy in Rome and I have been featured in Forbes Magazine, the Buffalo News, and have appeared on the Travel Channel. My travel articles have been featured in The New York Post, The Patriot Ledger, Buffalo Magazine, Wanted in Rome magazine and in AAA travel guides. I am passionate about exploring and sharing the complex layers of Rome and creating specialized and local experiences throughout Italy.
