THE WANDERERS

Passionate about people, places and most importantly, authentic experiences.  We create meaningful partnerships and successful road maps with luxury properties to last each leg of the journey. Discover who we are and why we wander.

Angelique Johns

Chief Wanderer

Independent, determined and adventurous, Angelique discovered her passion for travel soon after completing her Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology at Youngstown State University. Shifting her focus to the travel industry, she embarked on a more than 25-year career channeling her passionate spirit into agency operations, account management and global supplier management. 

Developing bespoke partner strategies and unique marketing initiatives with effective project management allows Angelique to drive growth, deliver measurable results and achieve objectives in every role. Most importantly, she fosters authentic relationships with hoteliers, travel advisors and other industry contacts around the world who will make the Wanderlux Collection thrive.

Angelique has a gypsy soul. From the U.S. to France, Greece, Portugal, Spain, India and beyond, she lives to explore the hidden gems and to walk alongside the real people and cultures that color our world. When not jetting off to a faraway land, Angelique enjoys sipping wine on her deck, reading, or just spending time with her rescue pup, Apollo.

​Last adventure: A week in Greece sharing her love of this stunning country with her good friend.  Delightful cuisine, amazing wine, shopping, massages, and so much more was just what her soul needed.    
​
Next adventure: Back to Greece in the fall and a NEW country as Wanderlux Collection expands.  Be sure to check back soon to see where to next!

Sarah Heximer

Social Wanderer

Strategic, creative, and passionate, Sarah is a lifelong explorer with a not-so-secret Francophilean view on life. With her Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology and Master of Business Administration through the University of Rochester and Simon Business School, she has spearheaded marketing and operations roles at regional and Fortune 500 companies.

Powerful words of encouragement from a mentor in 2019 led Sarah to embark on a new adventure with her own fractional strategic marketing company. Now at Wanderlux Collection, Sarah has found her niche as a storyteller. She delves into the uniqueness of each boutique property and unexpected location to grow its business.

Sarah and Angelique friendship bloomed after a chance encounter while traveling in Antigua. The friendship between these soul sisters remains rooted in a shared vision for authentic and memorable moments that Sarah is thrilled to curate with Wanderlux Collection’s partners and clients.

Her far-reaching travel list continues to expand with her time at Wanderlux. And with the Chief Wanderer’s green light, Sarah is ready to explore again and again. 

Last adventure: Venturing to Portugal to experience the luxurious Le Monumental Palace and all the incredible experiences that Porto offers.
​
Next adventure: A triumphant return to Paris more than two decades in the making, with greater fluency and admiration for the City of Love.

Tim May

Business Development Wanderer

​Motivated, passionate and innovative, Tim May is a modern day dream chaser. He honed his business acumen and customer-centric approach in sales and business development roles across the travel industry before building his own travel agency brokerage firm. Those experiences set the foundation for his middle-of-the-night idea: a full-service travel agency serving both current and former professional athletes and their families.

Tim’s idea is now an award-winning agency. He brings his expertise as a dynamic leader who’s always learning – and offering insights or a helping hand – to Wanderlux Collection where he oversees growth initiatives for group travel and meetings.
Relationships underscore Tim’s approach to both leadership and sales development. He looks forward to connecting even more clients to the unforgettable experiences that only travel can provide.

When not jet-setting to the next location, you’ll find him enjoying time with his wife or on the court refereeing basketball.
 
Last adventure: Nîmes, France, where he explored the 2,000-year-old arena, ancient temples and 17th-century Jardins de la Fontaine (Gardens of the Fountain)

Next adventure: Participating in a mission trip to Nigeria with his church
