WHY FIORAÉ

We’re Diedra and Lindsay, founders of Fioraé Travel. Fioraé was born from a simple but deep belief: that luxury travel deserves more than a booking – it deserves a true partnership. 

We built Fioraé after recognizing a gap in an industry that had long prioritized transactions over relationships. Together, we built a firm rooted in the conviction that the most extraordinary travel experiences are only possible when your advisor knows you, not just your itinerary. As proud members of the Virtuoso and Embark Beyond’s Pinnacle Circle and Millionaires Club, we are proud to bring you unparalleled access to properties, experiences and to possibilities that simply aren't available through any other channel. 

Hailing from Austin and Houston, Texas, we both have a passion for exploring new destinations and helping our clients do the same.

A former tech communications expert turned luxury travel designer, Diedra has a knack for making the client experience exceptional. As a self-proclaimed type A perfectionist (1 on the Enneagram), she leaves no stone unturned when crafting client itineraries. During her time at Embark, she has been featured in Embark’s Pinnacle Circle and Embark’s Millionaire Club, in addition to being quoted in outlets like Forbes, Travel Weekly and more. In her free time, Diedra is interested in wellness and biohacking, interior design, house music, learning new languages and cooking. She is currently based in Houston, TX.
