I launched Luxe Recess: For Parents Who Like Really Nice Hotels in 2014 with fifteen years as a magazine publisher under my belt. I am passionate about featuring the world's best family hotels, and I personally love vacations that revolve around historic architecture, innovative design, spa breaks, room service breakfasts, healthy food, taking pictures of my children, and seeing places through their eyes. I'm a luxury family travel advisor and writer based in Boston with my family.
