A little about me

Experience in luxury

Founder & Principal Consultant Tavia Robb

I have always been curious about the world. Growing up, I didn’t travel much, but I read constantly. I would imagine faraway places — and who I would be in those places. My first international trip, many years ago, was a serious step toward finding out: I moved to Japan to teach English. When the plane started its descent into Tokyo and I looked out the window at this wondrous, mysterious country, a new awareness sparked in me. I became conscious of how vast the world is, and how much richer our lives are when we explore it. That feeling has never left me. I suspect you know it, too. And that’s why we’re passionate about helping other people experience something similar.

Luxury communications

No one knows your story as well as you do, and I will help you tell it.

Are you opening a new property? Launching a brand? Looking to reinvigorate your core values and corporate social responsibility narrative? Perhaps you’re simply looking for ways to engage audiences in discovering all the things that already make your brand so special. 

Whatever your business priorities are, they deserve a storytelling expert with a creative, thoughtful approach, and inherent authenticity.

Whether global or local, whether ideating or executing, whether developing partnerships or leading multidisciplinary teams, whether building pitch strategy to target media coverage or engaging influencers, I am consistently enthusiastic, and I drive results.

With 20+ years of experience and a background in luxury hospitality, I come with a service mindset — just like you. Your commitment to putting your guests first and foremost, to making them feel not only welcomed but also seen — that’s how I feel about my clients.

Before the pandemic, I led strategic public relations for 30+ hotels across six international luxury hospitality brands. The teams at those hotels were my internal clients, and working with each of them to create powerful message strategies was intensely rewarding. Now, having transitioned to independent consulting, I know I’m at my best when partnering with clients who are equally passionate about helping people discover transformative experiences through travel.
