Meet Jen

Founder of Navigate With Jen

Hi, I’m Jen — travel advisor, photographer, rotarian and the founder of Navigate With Jen.


I specialize in bucket-list travel for solo women who want to see the world boldly — without doing it alone. From expertly curated Exoticca tours to unforgettable cruises and custom itineraries, I help turn “one day” trips into booked, planned, and confidently executed adventures.


Through Navigate With Jen, I design customized itineraries and hosted group trips that blend luxury, adventure, and connection — so you can stop overthinking and start experiencing. Whether it’s a once-in-a-lifetime journey through Europe, a Mediterranean cruise, or a dream destination you’ve been saving for “someday,” I handle the details so you can simply show up and enjoy.


My background in photography gives me a creative eye for pacing, flow, and moments that matter — but more importantly, I’m deeply passionate about helping women feel confident, capable, and excited while they travel.


That’s where Navigate With Confidence comes in — my mentorship and support space designed to help travelers feel informed, empowered, and prepared every step of the way.


And through Navigate With Her, I share the heart behind the journeys: real stories, travel inspiration, and what it looks like to build a life — and a business — fueled by curiosity, courage, and connection.


If you’re ready for bucket-list trips, meaningful experiences, and travel that feels both elevated and fun — you’re in the right place.


Let’s navigate the world, together.

I know what I'm talking about

I don't just plan trips. I live them.

The best travel advice doesn't come from a brochure. It comes from getting lost in a city, figuring out train stations, testing hotels, experiencing tours firsthand, and learning what actually makes a trip unforgettable.

Here's a little about my own travel experience:

  • I've explored 18+ countries across Europe, North America, Africa, and beyond.

  • I've sailed on Mediterranean, Caribbean, and transatlantic cruises, so I can help match you with the right ship, cabin, and onboard experience.

  • I've traveled extensively with Exoticca, giving me firsthand knowledge of their tours, hotels, pacing, and what it's really like to travel with them.

  • I've explored cities like London, Paris, Venice, New York, Los Angeles, and Boston, both independently and with guided groups.

  • I've organized and hosted group trips, especially for solo travellers looking for community and connection.

  • I love photography, so I'm always paying attention to the best viewpoints, timing, and those little moments that make a destination special.

  • I believe the best itineraries aren't just about checking off attractions. They're about creating memories you'll still be talking about years later.

  • I've travelled solo, with friends, with family, and with organized groups, so I understand that everyone has a different travel style.

Every itinerary I create is based on real experience, honest recommendations, and the lessons I've learned while travelling myself. My goal is simple: to help you travel with confidence and spend more time enjoying the journey.

Proud Rotarian ❤️

As a proud Rotarian, giving back is important to me.

If you're a Rotarian and book your trip through me, a portion of my commission will be donated back to your Rotary club. That means your vacation helps support the projects and communities you care about, while you create incredible memories around the world.
