Overview

With seven generations growing up in New Orleans my family has deep roots in the French quarter and the Garden District. As a child going to Audubon Montessori I rode the Saint Charles street car everyday and later went to Loyola University during Katrina. We will be touring through very familiar territory :-) please take your tours from locals it makes such a big difference!
