What My Clients Say
No matter the project, I strive to exceed your expectations. Here are quotes from just a few of my happy clients.
Colleen was a great partner to work with Visit Burbank. She was very professional, responding quickly to questions and open to suggestions. She went above and beyond, delivering more than asked. She worked with us to convey a wonderful story about the city to her followers in both her social posts and stories as well as her in-depth blog article. Her work was beautiful and fun, and it captured the diverse experiences and excitement that our city has to offer. We hope to work with her again in the future.
From the initial itinerary planning, Colleen was inquisitive and enthusiastic to experience all the unique family offerings on The Secret Coast, and that enthusiasm continued throughout their visit. From exciting and compelling social media posts to a wonderfully comprehensive recap of her visit to Coastal Mississippi, Colleen’s work truly reflected our destination and the diverse experiences it has to offer.
This is the most well-rounded review anyone has ever done of the resort. WOW! Thank you so much for getting everything in there.

Meet My Travel Crew
While I often travel solo or with fellow creators, many of my favorite adventures are shared with Phil — my goofy, good-natured husband who’s becoming a regular (and very patient!) presence in my videos.
I also still travel with our kids when schedules align: Karissa, our creative 20-year-old with ever-changing multi-colored hair, and Leo, our 17-year-old gym enthusiast and gentle soul who seems to charm everyone he meets. Whether it’s a grownup getaway, or a family trip with teens in tow, I create content that reflects real-life travel experiences — warm, relatable, and tailored to your brand’s goals.
Press Trips & Sponsored Blog Posts
I’m available for individual or group press trips. Hosted visits include a well-researched blog post and enthusiastic social shares across Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, and Pinterest.
Sponsored blog posts are SEO-optimized, engaging, and updated regularly. My articles often rank on the first page of search results and remain live for at least three years.
