Guide Bio

When people come to New Orleans, they are surrounded by things “designed” for tourists, and yet most want to have an authentic experience.

Most of the people who call themselves “guides” are not only not from the city, they’ve been here about two years, and yet want to convince you that they are in the know. If you weren’t here before Katrina, you literally can not say you know New Orleans.

My city is magical, manic, and is filled with vibrancy and the strangest history imaginable. I love hosting people when they visit, and I can tell you things from the best places to eat and drink, to the dark and oftentimes hidden past of this place that I love.

I’ve been featured and worked with Syfy, Discovery, CMT, History Channel, Animal Planet, Travel Channel, ATT Uverse, SVT, and have been the preferred guide for authors Karen Moning and Sherrilyn Kenyon, and consulted on CW’s long-running hit show
