About

Hey, I’m Taylor!

Your New Travel Bestie!

I have been travelling since I was in high school and I love exploring new places. Aside from travelling, I love to read (usually romance) and I am working on getting my Advanced Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) and 911 Operator Certifications! I started Cinder and Silk in January 2025 to help anyone and everyone plan their dream trip, regardless of budget, place, or any other restriction.

I've been travelling since I was about 16 as part of a competitive show choir, visiting places like Nashville, Kansas City, Cincinnati, and Chicago. Since then, I have been spending most of my time exploring the US, visiting all 48 Continental US states before I was 23. My current favorite places are Las Vegas, Miami, Nashville, and Chicago! I love helping people plan all of their trips, explorations, and cruises. I am affiliated with Worldvia x Travel Leaders, so you will always get the best amenities and perks when you book through me at no cost to you!

So… What is a Travel Advisor?

A travel advisor (also known as a travel agent or consultant) is a professional who specializes in helping people plan, book, and manage travel experiences. Travel advisors act as personal consultants who use their expertise, industry connections, and insider knowledge to create customized travel experiences tailored to their clients’ needs.
We can plan anything from simple domestic vacations and luxury honeymoons to multi-country international tours, business travel, cruises, safaris, adventure getaways, and more. Not to mention we normally get added perks like breakfast, resort credits, and more for you to use during your trip!
