Plan your New England trip with Jess
Jess is an Upstate New York–based travel journalist and wildlife specialist who’s explored nearly 70 countries across all seven continents.
““After moving from Buffalo to a small town near Hudson with my fiancé, I realized how easy it is to dip into New England’s best spots — from Stowe in the fall and winter, and Newport, Narragansett, coastal Maine, and Cape Cod in the summer, I love sharing the magic of this region with travelers.
And travel isn’t just my hobby — my work as a wildlife and adventure travel journalist has taken me around the world: swimming with humpback whales in French Polynesia, trekking with gorillas in Rwanda, spotting tigers in India, photographing penguins in Antarctica, and tracking everything from great whites to pink dolphins. I also specialize in cruising — luxury, expedition, river, and ocean — and I love helping travelers explore the natural world with curiosity and care.”
