About Me
Hola! I'm a wife, mom, and lifelong Disney fan. I teach Spanish by day and immerse myself in the Disney universe by night. I love working with children in my job, and I try to sprinkle pixie dust into my classroom wherever I can. In between my own Disney Parks trips, I enjoy traveling, running, spending time with my family, and helping friends plan their own magical vacations to Walt Disney World. I have visited 46 states and 16 countries, but nothing brings me joy like exploring the Most Magical Place on Earth with the people I love.
About My Family
My husband and I have been married since 2009, and we took our first Walt Disney World vacation together that same year. After experiencing my infectious passion and excitement for the Disney Parks, he became an avid Disney fan as well. Years later our family has grown to include our young son and daughter who are always looking forward to our next Walt Disney World trip. Our favorite attractions to enjoy as a family are Pirates of the Caribbean, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Living with the Land, and Spaceship Earth. We are also Disney Vacation Club members and love trying new resorts each year. During an especially magical stay at Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort, we watched fireworks together each night in our villa while the music from Happily Ever After played on the television.
About My Disney Experience
I have been visiting Walt Disney World since I was a baby, but the first sign of my unique Disney fandom occurred when I was only seven years old. We had just returned from a family vacation at the brand-new (at the time) Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort. My parents had been reading Birnbaum's Walt Disney World: The Official Guide to my sister and me months before the trip as they made plans. After the trip, I wrote a letter to the editors expressing my thanks and offering advice for future editions of the guidebook. I still have the response we received from the editors as a memento and first sign that Disney would always be an important part of my life. I enjoy all four of the major theme parks at Walt Disney World, but Epcot is my favorite place to spend a day. I have also visited the Disneyland Resort in California, and my ultimate Disney goal is to visit the Tokyo Disney Resort. I can't wait to help you make magical memories on your Disney Parks adventures!
