Favorite Travel Memory: 

My favorite travel memory is going to Walt Disney World with my entire family when I was eight years old. My grandparents took all twelve of us, including my cousins, and we stayed at the Grand Floridian. Growing up in Florida, I had been to Disney many times with my immediate family, but this trip was especially memorable because we were all together as a big family. I still remember swimming in the Grand Floridian pool, going to Chef Mickey’s and meeting the characters with my cousins, and having dinner as a family at ‘Ohana. It’s one of those core Disney memories that has always stayed with me.

Disney Travel Advice:

One of the biggest mistakes I see first-time Disney visitors make is trying to do everything without a clear plan. Between park reservations, dining, and Lightning Lanes, having the right strategy can make a huge difference in how much you actually enjoy your trip.

My Favorite Travel Tip:

Build in time to rest. It’s tempting to pack your schedule every day, especially for trips like Disney, where there’s so much to do. Taking time to slow down and recharge can make the rest of your vacation much more enjoyable.

Why should you book your vacation with me?

Planning a Disney trip can feel overwhelming, especially if it’s your first time, with so many details to consider. Having grown up going to Disney and continuing to stay up to date with planning tools, tips, and constant changes, I help simplify the process and make it more manageable. Whether you want full support or prefer to stay involved in the details, I work with you to plan a trip that fits your needs, your pace, and your budget.
