Who we are
Your NYC Story, Personally Guided
As a NYC-licensed tour guide with 25 years of local expertise, I don't just show you New York – I share the city that transformed me from St. John's University student to passionate NYC storyteller.
From Campus to Community: A Quarter-Century of NYC Discovery
My journey began in the diverse halls of St. John's University, where global perspectives met Queens authenticity. Living in Jamaica and immersing myself in the neighborhoods from Hillside Avenue to Roosevelt Avenue, I discovered what guidebooks miss – the soul of New York lives in its local streets, family-run establishments, and untold stories.
Welcome to Queens: The World's Borough
Here, regional cuisines from India to Burma, China to Indonesia, Mexico to Argentina exist within blocks of each other – a global journey measured in footsteps, not flight miles. For 25 years, I've collected these experiences: hidden culinary gems that became family traditions, cultural crossroads where communities converge, and the ever-evolving narrative of Queens' most vibrant corridors. This isn't tourism – it's cultural immersion through the eyes of someone who's lived it.
