I'M ALEXIS, FOUNDER of HOUSE of IMARA
My path to travel design was anything but linear. It began in nonprofit and conservation, where I spent years working to protect wildlife and wild places.
When I started a family, I shifted gears, carrying with me a lifetime of curiosity, purpose, and a deep appreciation for culture and connection.
Today, I blend that foundation with my expertise in luxury travel to create journeys that are both soulful and seamless.
I love working with travelers who crave over-the-top, one-of-a-kind experiences and who trust the process completely, knowing that the magic happens when imagination is allowed to run free.
