I fell in love with Disney Parks when I was a child. By my 18th birthday, I had been to Walt Disney World three times and Disneyland twice--and I loved reading about the parks so much that I eagerly awaited the release of each new edition of Birnbaum's Guide to Walt DisneyWorld every year. As an adult, I've made sure to instill my love of all things Disney in my own children.
Shortly after I became a high school English teacher in 2001, I got the privilege of serving as a class advisor. In that capacity, I planned and chaperoned many senior class trips from New Jersey to Disney and Universal. I've taken over a thousand high school students to my favorite place!
Becoming a credentialed travel advisor specializing in Disney Destinations was a logical, seamless, and natural next step for me, and I love every minute of the work I do for families. I especially value my training and experience as a Certified Autism Travel Professional.
Aside from my love of Disney, I'm a classically-trained pianist who almost majored in piano performance--but decided instead to pursue a B.A. in English and an M.Ed in Secondary Education. I live in New Jersey with my husband, Pat; my two boys, Brennan and Gavin; our dog, Daisy; and our four cats: Tiki, Cubby, Alvin, and Simon. I love music, driving (manual transmissions have my heart!), good food, good books, funny people, spending time on Long Beach Island, and all things Philly sports! Go Birds!
