About Me

Being named Prince, it was only fitting that I grew up reading about magical lands and castles in far-off places. Growing up in Canada dreaming of what a Walt Disney World Resort vacation would be like, I never knew how profoundly my very first visit would affect me. Just being instantly transported to so many different lands, and feeling so immersed in these places all within a few days had sparked my interest to make it my personal mission to travel and explore the world the same way that Walt Disney and so many Imagineers have done before. As an international studies major I spent my university years learning more languages to eventually make my way across the world and complete a global circumnavigation from Australia by sea. Throughout my travels I've been able to visit all of the Disney Parks worldwide, eating all the signature snacks and experiencing the similarities and differences each of them has to offer. Whenever I'm home I love storytelling through puppeteering and film, and listening to Motown albums as I paint. I can't wait to share my knowledge and experiences to anyone looking to plan their next Disney journey and be a part of our very special society of explorers and adventurers!

About My Family

I was born on an island in the Philippines to a family of voyagers who found their way across the world to eventually settle in Canada. For us, the chance to take a Disney vacation was something that my parents saved up for to give us that one magical childhood trip, which was just that little spark that made me want to come back and eventually become an Annual Passholder as an adult. Looking at my family now, it's easy to see that we're a diverse blend of cultures which stemmed from growing up in a welcoming, multilingual household in many countries. Being married to a Brazilian husband, I've embraced a whole new world of Portuguese-speaking familia who share our love of Disney; even in different languages, we're still singing the same Disney songs. As we became proud Disney Uncles (or "Duncles"), we love being able to see through the eyes of our young ones and plan ways to make every moment for them as magical as we can at Walt Disney World Resort as we connect with other families as mixed and diverse as ours!

About My Disney Experience

I grew up amidst the Disney Renaissance and watching each new animated film on the big screen was the start of my love for the storytelling that continues to be such a key part of the Walt Disney Company. This was part of the reason why I wanted to become a Cast Member in order to perform, entertain and bring these stories to life for younger guests at sea and where I would eventually meet the love of my life who also worked in Entertainment. Since then, not only did I become engaged at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa but planning a Disney Fairy Tale Wedding at Walt Disney World has been something I am always willing to share my tips and experiences to all kinds of couples looking to share their love in the most magical way. Being not only a member of the LGBTQ+ community but also as a person of color, the fact that Inclusion is one of the guiding Keys of the Walt Disney Company reminds me why I always feel so welcomed at every Disney destination, and why people like me can always feel safe and comfortable to be who they are whenever they visit. I know that my Disney experience may be distinctly different from many others; however I hope to be able to use this opportunity to help represent folks and families of all kinds of identities and backgrounds, provide helpful answers and insight, and make sure all of our experiences are just as magical.
