Hi, I’m Frank, the voice behind Depth & Discovery Travels. My love for travel began in high school with a Spanish-immersion trip to Ecuador, and it never stopped. I’ve explored over 150 cities across 56 countries, climbed ancient pyramids in Mexico, dined at hidden local spots in Hong Kong, and even helped teach Northwestern physical therapy students how to communicate with clients who have aphasia.

After experiencing a life-altering stroke in 2012 that resulted in aphasia, I faced a turning point. I could no longer return to my corporate career at Deloitte, but I wasn’t ready to stop learning, connecting, and exploring the world. Travel became more than a passion—it became purpose. I rebuilt my life through service, advocacy, and meaningful travel, often designing detailed itineraries for myself and others.

Friends and family began asking for my help planning their trips, and that’s when Depth & Discovery Travels was born.

Today, I help independent travelers discover destinations with depth—cultural, historical, and personal. Whether you want to uncover local gems in Cleveland or explore the ruins of Jerash in Jordan, I offer personalized travel consulting that gives you the confidence to go farther.

And while I serve all seasoned travelers, I specialize in helping people with disabilities or medical conditions enjoy rich, well-organized, barrier-reducing travel experiences because your needs deserve to be considered without compromising your sense of adventure.

If you’re looking for more than a list of tourist stops, you’re in the right place. I’ll help you travel with purpose, clarity, and confidence—wherever your curiosity takes you.
