About Me
Ahoy, Mouseketeers! I’m Dustin, your Disney-loving adventurer who can’t get enough of the magic both on land and at sea! Originally from Spokane, Washington, I’m currently living in sunny Florida, where my family and I enjoy everything from beach days to sailing the high seas with Captain Mickey and friends. As an active-duty military member, I know how precious family time is, which is why we make every Disney adventure unforgettable. From hidden Mickeys to magical moments, I’m here to help you chart a course for fun, adventure, and memories that will last well beyond the final port!
About My Family
My wife and I have been happily married for over 14 years and together for 19 magical years! We have two amazing preteens—our daughter, a Disney and anime aficionado (you’ve got to see her drawings!), and our son, a car enthusiast who’s watched the “Making the Wish” documentary more times than we can count (he’s basically a tour guide at this point!). We love exploring every Disney ship, enjoying the food, shows, deck parties, and, of course, a little bingo (shake it up, Betty!). When we’re not cruising, you can find us soaking up the sun at local beaches, cheering at youth sports games, or planning our next Disney Cruise Line adventure!
About My Disney Experience
My Disney adventure started in 2004 when my high school band had the chance to perform at Disneyland Resort. As a percussionist, I loved seeing the Disney magic through the eyes of all the families enjoying the park as we marched by. But it wasn’t until 2019 that my family and I truly “caught the Disney bug” on our first Disney Cruise aboard the Dream. Immediately after we disembarked that amazing cruise, we headed straight for Walt Disney World Resort, where we continued to witness the magic take over our kids—and us! Now that we’re Florida locals, we’re proud Walt Disney World Annual Passholders and love our staycations. However, our hearts belong to Disney Cruise Line. We’re Platinum Castaway Club members and have sailed nearly every ship—Wonder, we’re coming for you! We are beyond excited to set sail on the Treasure in 2025 and the Destiny in 2026!
