About Me
I’m Jessica—a proud Canadian-turned-honorary Texan since 2008. I’m a data scientist with a passion for uncovering insights and solving complex problems. Like many of my fellow planDisney Panelists, I’m a devoted Disney Destinations enthusiast. You’ll often find me poring over park maps, dissecting dining menus, and discovering new ways to maximize every magical moment at Walt Disney World Resort. I wholeheartedly believe that planning is half the fun of a vacation, and I'm always dreaming up and organizing that next incredible adventure.
About My Family
I met my husband in 2008 while we were both working in the entertainment department onboard a cruise ship, spending our days exploring incredible destinations—from the volcanic mountains of Hawaii to the breathtaking glaciers of Alaska. After years of adventure, we settled on dry land and tied the knot in 2012, forgoing the typical tropical honeymoon for an unforgettable trip to our favorite place: Walt Disney World Resort. Since then, I've loved sharing the magic with friends and family, but my true passion lies in experiencing Disney through the lens of foodie-focused couples’ getaways and fabulous girls’ trips. From savoring exceptional dining to discovering hidden gems, I find the grown-up side of Walt Disney World Resort just as magical as ever!
About My Disney Experience
Walt Disney World Resort has been a cherished part of my life since I was nine months old, when I had my picture taken on my dad's shoulders in front of Cinderella Castle. From that moment, I was hooked—and I haven’t been able to stay away! Whether for family vacations, high school band competitions, or romantic getaways with my husband, it’s my ultimate destination for celebrating life’s most special moments. My Disney travel style revolves around the elegance and charm of Disney Resort Hotels, soaking in the ambiance of stunning lounge spaces, and indulging in world-class dining experiences. In the parks, you’ll often find me savoring a signature meal, shopping on Hollywood Boulevard, or riding Living with the Land on repeat—it’s my all-time favorite!
