Meet Jen

Founder of Navigate With Jen

Hi, I’m Jen — travel advisor, photographer, 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

(Confident, website-ready, not obnoxious — just facts)

I don’t just plan trips — I’ve lived them.

Here’s a snapshot of the adventures that shape how I design travel experiences for my clients:

  • Explored 18+ countries across Europe, North America, and beyond

  • Experienced Mediterranean, Caribbean, and transatlantic cruises, understanding ship styles, cabin choices, and onboard vibes firsthand

  • Traveled extensively with Exoticca, gaining deep insight into guided tours, pacing, accommodations, and group dynamics

  • Navigated iconic cities like London, Paris, Venice, New York, Los Angeles, and Boston independently and with groups

  • Designed and led group travel experiences for solo travelers who wanted connection without compromise

  • Photographed destinations on location, learning how timing, light, and flow affect real travel days

  • Planned trips around bucket-list moments, not just logistics — from historic landmarks to once-in-a-lifetime scenery

  • Balanced fast-paced itineraries with intentional downtime (because burnout is not luxury)

  • Traveled solo, with friends, and in professionally hosted groups — so I understand every travel personality in the room

Every itinerary I build is informed by real experience, real problem-solving, and real moments — not guesswork.
