About Me
Born and raised in the Buckeye State, I am a teacher currently working as a case manager. I am an only child with an only child. I am a roller coaster enthusiast, a souvenir connoisseur, a huge Star Wars fangirl and a Disney Parks fanatic. I love home movies and photo albums. I can solve a Rubik's Cube in less than two minutes. I also volunteer my time to Cats Are People Too an organization that helps control the feral cat population. The Force is strong with my love of helping people plan vacations to the Walt Disney World Resort.
About My Family
I am currently an empty nester since my daughter met and married her Prince Charming. Through the years, my padawan has grown up visiting the Walt Disney World resort, like her mother before her. My extended family of cousins, aunts and uncles from all over Ohio and the east & west coasts make up my "vacation crew." We have all grown up taking vacations since 1972 and enjoy the thrill of passing down certain family traditions when it comes to vacation planning. I am also the family historian, which means I am responsible for planning all PhotoPass photo ops for the family scrapbooks.
About My Disney Experience
I have visited the Walt Disney World Resort in all stages of life, as a child, a teen, a young mom with a toddler, as a single mom with a pre-teen and more recently with a young adult daughter. With more than 30 visits and counting, traveling with family and several trips alone, every trip is magical. I have experienced just about every attraction, show, nighttime spectacular and a few special events (ex. Galactic Nights, Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party.) I enjoy planning those extra special, one-of-a-kind experiences for my family and would be honored to do the same for you and your younglings as well.
