About Me
Hi there! My name is Kristin, and I'm from a small city in Southern California, just 30 minutes from the Disneyland Resort. I was lucky enough to be raised by Disney-obsessed parents, and some of my earliest memories include taking pictures with Mickey Mouse and friends! In my professional life, I started my journalism career working in TV news, then moved into print and online writing. Nowadays, when I’m not adventuring at the Disneyland Resort, I’m also a freelance writer and editor. I can’t wait to use my research and writing skills to help you plan your dream Disney getaway!
About My Family
I met my husband shortly after graduating from the University of San Diego, and we got married in 2007. He’s truly the Mickey to my Minnie! We spent our early married years traveling as a couple to Europe and Hawaii, and to college football games with friends and family. Since then, we have added three Mousketeers to our family, including two boys and one girl. I’m happy to report that they too have caught the Disney “bug” and I’m so thankful to be making new Disney memories with them at a place that means so much to me.
About My Disney Experience
As a teenager in the late 90s, I saved my babysitting money to purchase an Annual Passport, and my friends and I enjoyed many nights full of Disney magic. I’ve been an Annual Passholder on-and-off for 20 years now! Since we live locally, we often visit during the week to get our Disney fix. My parents also enjoy coming with us, and I love this special time my kids get with their grandparents. I also consider the parks an ideal spot for a date night with my husband, or a mom’s night out. We just can’t get enough of the magic and joy we encounter on each of our Disney adventures!
When it comes to helping others get the most out of their Disneyland Resort vacations, I especially love helping friends and family traveling with young children – I consider myself a pro at utilizing the Baby Centers and navigating the parks with littles. I also enjoy helping guests plan for special events and holidays, along with staying at the hotels of the Disneyland Resort. I look forward to sharing the pixie dust and helping you plan for the most magical vacation of your life!
