Jambo! ✨

I have some exciting news to share with you!

✈️I will be traveling to California from April 27 to May 3, 2024, where I will be exploring Disneyland Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood. During my stay, I will be gathering information to provide you with the most up-to-date advice and pointers for navigating your vacations.

💻📱While I am away, my schedule will be jam-packed with training, exploring the theme parks, and hanging out with Mickey. Therefore, I will have limited access to my emails and phone. However, please feel free to send me your questions or curiosities, and I will respond as soon as I can.

What are some things you'd like to see while I'm in the parks?👀

✨2023 has been a wild ride! From multiple trips to Disney World, my first voyage on the Disney Wish, & most importantly a brand new baby, this past year has been full of blessings & so many of you were right there with me to count each one.

I am grateful to continue working as a travel agent for The Vacationeer and continue helping so many of you create the most magical vacations. In between planning your vacations, we have shared so much of our personal lives together, from new milestones, achievements, pictures of your babies and fur babies, engagements, & even weddings. You've allowed me to be privy to some of the most intimate parts of your lives and I am grateful for it. I pray that your holiday season be filled with peace, genuine happiness, & unshakable joy. I pray that 2024 be a new chapter full of blessings, grace, & opportunities.

Year to date I’ve helped serve over a whopping 200 families (what?! I did not see that one coming!) I would not have been able to do so without your support and referrals. So once again, I must ask of you to think of me when you’re planning your next vacation or you overhear a co-worker or friend considering their own Disney Destinations vacation. Whether it be a Disney Cruise, Adventures by Disney, Disney World, Disneyland, or Universal, allow me to take you by the hand and be your guide during the entire process from start to check out!
