About Me
Howdy! I’m Sakinah from New York. When I’m not planning my family’s next Disney adventure, I’m organizing professional development events for educators. As an event professional, attention to detail and thoughtful planning are second nature to me. This is probably why Disney vacation planning feels like pure joy; it blends my love of organization and thoughtful planning with my favorite place on earth!
While I’ve been to and love all of the U.S. Disney Parks, I think my heart belongs to Magic Kingdom. Nothing compares to that first walk down Main Street, U.S.A., or seeing fireworks sparkle in the sky above Cinderella Castle. The nostalgia I feel when I enter Fantasyland can’t be measured; the classic rides always transport me back to my childhood trips with my family. When I’m not in a Disney park, I love cheerleading from the stands at my boys’ sports events, listening to music, visiting beautiful beaches, experimenting with home décor, and discovering new restaurants with my partner.

About My Family
My partner and I share a beautifully blended family and are raising our four amazing boys together. My biological children have grown up visiting Disney Parks with my family and can probably pinpoint any spot on a Walt Disney World map. Watching them experience the same wonder that first captured my heart as a child, especially alongside my mom and aunt who took 4-year-old me to Walt Disney World for the first time, makes every visit even more special.
About My Disney Experience
My Disney love story started early, watching classic films with my grandfather who never missed a new release from the “Disney Vault.” Those magical memories, paired with my childhood family trips, shaped me into a lifelong Disney fan. Today, I’m overjoyed to share that same magic with my own family and I can’t wait to help you create unforgettable moments at The Most Magical Place on Earth!
