Hiya Pal! If you’ve found your way to my page you must love Disney, traveling, and especially - traveling to Disney parks! Well, we have that in common. I was inspired by the magic of Disney at a very young age, and have continued to enjoy it as I have grown and my interests and experiences have changed. I truly believe that Disney has something to offer for everyone, and I want to share the magic with all of you! I’ve created this space to share my personal experiences, rave reviews, warnings, and a bit of encouragement to everyone thinking about planning a trip to a Disney park (or anywhere else in the world!). Now let me tell you a little bit about me, to show you how I became the Disney adult I am. 



When I was small my favorite part of each Disney trip was meeting Mary Poppins. One year when I was greeted by her wide grin and a warm hug, she asked, "What is your name dear?" My little heart was wounded as I responded, "You don't remember me?" Her smile turned into shock as the recognition dawned on her and she said, "Oh MY how you've grown, I hardly recognized you!" The special sort of joy she sparked in me, feeling like the luckiest girl in the world to be remembered by someone who is practically perfect in every way, stuck with me. As I grew and my interests changed from Princesses to science, traveling the world and experiencing new cultures through food and immersion, I've realized that Disney offers a chance to celebrate and indulge everyone. 



Growing up in the sunny state of Florida, only 2 hours from the most magical place on Earth, every state track and swim meet, dance competition, and youth group event was held in Orlando. Naturally, that also meant a LOT of Disney trips. I worked as a lifeguard at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge during my Disney College Program, and got to live, work, and spend my free time on Disney property. As a millenial-Gen Z cusper, I’ve joined the bandwagon and recently started endurance running. So of course I’ve used that new hobby as an excuse for more trips to Disney, and hopped on the RunDisney train. I’ve now turned my husband into a Disney adult too! 



With firsthand experience living and working at Disney, I’ve gained a treasure trove of valuable information when it comes to planning your trip and maximizing your experiences. Now, I am adding another unique perspective as a travel agent for a Diamond level Earmarked agency. This means we are a top seller of Disney vacations and constantly keep up with specials, new events, and ever-changing times of the Disney parks and experiences. I lost count long ago of the number of times I have been to Disney parks, but I guarantee it’s in the hundreds, and I don’t plan to slow down any time soon! I’ve been to the holiday special ticketed events, I’ve stayed at over half of the Disney resorts, I’ve used Genie+ and DAS to plan my days in the parks, I’ve eaten at countless restaurants on property, I’ve done backstage tours, and I’ve played at the water parks and mini-golf courses. I’m here to tell you everything you need to know to plan your family’s most magical vacation yet; or, let me do all the heavy lifting of research and booking, and be your hype-woman to get you and your family stoked about your upcoming trip! Outside of Disney, I’ve traveled to 8 countries outside of the USA, stayed at Sandals all-inclusive resorts, and cruised on multiple cruise lines. I am passionate about planning and sharing magical travel outside of the Disney parks too, so please get in touch about any travel requests or needs you may have! Let me leave you with just a few of my happiest, most beautiful memories of travel and the Disney parks. Let it inspire you to dive in head-first and start planning your next vacation (because you can bet I am too)! Bye for now - I'll see ya real soon!
