About Me
Hi friends! I am a husband and dad to two fun and rambunctious kiddos under five. I've lived in Arizona since I was five, my wife and I met at Arizona State University, and we now live in the Phoenix metro area where I work in marketing and communications as my day job. I know a likely unnecessary amount of random trivia about three of my favorite things: the Disneyland Resort, Star Wars, and Marvel. When I'm not planning our family's next trip to the Disneyland Resort, I love spending time with family and friends, playing video and board games, and fitness! My newest hobby has been learning Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
About My Family
My wife and I have been married since 2013 and have a boy and a girl, both under five. My wife grew up in the Midwest and hadn't visited the Disneyland Resort since she was a baby, so I like to take credit for sharing my infectious enthusiasm with her, so much so that she now gets just as excited for our next trip as I do. We first took our son when he was a year old then, just to try to top ourselves, we took another trip when our daughter was just six months old. We've made it an annual family tradition to visit ever since! The Disneyland Resort was like a second home for me growing up, and it has been incredible to now see the magic through our kids' eyes.
About My Disney Experience
I first visited Disneyland Park when I was five. I still have memories of going on the Motor Boat Cruise, Skyway, and two separate Autopia tracks on that first visit. My family continued to visit at least once per year and it has been absolutely amazing to see how the park has grown and changed over the years. Some of my favorite memories include pulling the sword from the stone with Merlin, visiting Disney California Adventure Park on opening weekend, and the first time I stepped foot in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge with my wife and son. I love staying up to date with all the latest news about the Disneyland Resort, and after visiting the parks numerous times now with young kids, I feel well-equipped to help you plan a magical trip with little ones!
