About Me
When I'm not working, I can usually be found driving my kids to their extracurricular activities, having impromptu dance parties in the kitchen, and planning our meals. We have food allergies in our family, and I'm often making allergy-safe, copycat recipes that our entire family can enjoy.
It's easy for me to get caught up in the day-to-day bustle of life, which is why I always have at least one planned vacation to look forward to. Tropical getaways, lakeside retreats, and Disney destinations are my favorite places to visit!
About My Family
Some of my most treasured childhood memories took place at large family gatherings at Disneyland Resort. Laughing with my cousins on attractions like Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and grabbing jungle skewers with my dad at Bengal Barbecue were special experiences that strengthened our family connections.
After meeting my future-husband at a mutual friend's house, I knew I had to introduce him to my "Happiest Place on Earth." We experienced a magical trip that year and have been living our happily ever after since then. We are now the parents of two dance-loving, kindhearted Mouseketeers who like visiting Disney destinations as much as we do. My husband appreciates the relaxing vibe on the Disney Cruise Line; my kids enjoy the thrills found at the theme parks; and I love it all!
We are also a family of Wilderness Explorers! Exploring the great outdoors is one of our family's preferred pastimes. We spend the warmer months camping, hiking, and kayaking around the many mountain lakes near our hometown. After all, adventure is out there!
About My Disney Experience
Somewhere in my garage, there is a collection of VHS tapes featuring a child wearing layered, slouchy socks and neon-colored shortalls skipping through Disneyland Resort. That child is me! What started out as summer vacations at Disneyland Resort turned into a lifetime of visiting Disney destinations. Whether it's birthdays, anniversaries, or other milestones, Disneyland Resort has always been our family's celebration destination. It's also my favorite place to reconnect with friends during frequent adults-only trips.
A few years ago, I made my first visit to Walt Disney World Resort. I was instantly captivated! Strolling through the different World Showcase pavilions in EPCOT spoke to my social work heart, and flying on the back of a banshee on Avatar Flight of Passage took my breath away. Thankfully, my sister now lives in Florida, giving our family the perfect excuse to make frequent trips to Walt Disney World Resort!
When I'm in need of ocean breezes and fruity cocktails, I turn to the Disney Cruise Line. I have sailed on several Disney cruises over recent years. Disney cruises are the perfect vacation when my family wants some downtime, and nothing beats the beautiful ocean surrounding Disney Castaway Cay!
My family has made countless special memories during our Disney vacations. I can't wait to help you plan your own practically perfect Disney trip!
