What is your earliest Orlando memory? :

My earliest Orlando memory is sitting on Main Street USA at the age of 4 being mesmerized by the parade. Seeing Cinderella by heart filled with joy as she and Prince Charming came up to me and asked if I would like to dance. I still have pictures to this day of dancing with Cinderella on Main Street.

What do you love most about Orlando :

Orlando is truly a destination that has something for everyone. Whether you are a thrill seeker wanting to ride Velocicoaster at Universal, a believer and dreamer wanting to watch fireworks and parades and Walt Disney World, a shopaholic wanting to head to the Outlets or sun seeker wanting to catch those Florida rays. It truly is my favorite destination.

What is your most magical Orlando memory? :

Where do I start there are so many! Whilst living in Orlando my family came to visit me and I had booked a firework cruise. This sailed from Disney’s Grand Floridian around the lagoon and then stopped in front of Magic Kingdom, as the Happily Ever After began they played the music on the boat. It was magical to have own boat and get to watch the fireworks whilst enjoying Mickey Mouse shaped snacks, after all everything tastes better Mickey Shaped!

When is your next Orlando trip and what are you doing? :

My next Orlando trip is in September! Here at Ever After Holidays we get opportunities to travel to Orlando with the company, on this trip I will be visiting many villas so I can increase my knowledge of villa communities, whilst in Orlando I am excited to attend Universal’s Halloween Horror Nights and Disney’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. This August I am also sailing on the Disney Wonder on a 7 Night Alaskan Cruise celebrating the Silver Anniversary at Sea! I can’t wait to experience this cruise itinerary and share my photos with you!

What is your DREAM Orlando Holiday? :

My dream Orlando holiday would be traveling either to celebrate Halloween or Christmas as I love Orlando at these times of year. First, I would stay on-site at Disney, I like to stay in two Disney Resorts during my holiday my favorites include Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa and Disney’s Wilderness Lodge. Then I would sail on board a Disney Cruise, there is nothing more magical than Disney at Sea! Maybe end the holiday with a few nights at Universal so that I can ride Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure, this is one of favorite rides at Universal.

What do you love most about working at Ever After Holidays? :

I am very fortunate to work with an amazing team! Most of us have worked at Walt Disney World, some even at the same time. We all have a real passion for Orlando and travel and love being able to help families, couples and solo travellers to visit amazing places. Talking about Disney all day is a dream come true.

What do you love most about booking customers holidays? :

I love creating bespoke holidays are tailored to suit the needs of who is travelling. Every holiday is different, whether it’s a villa you would like or a cruise and stay, Orlando has something for everyone. I love planning every section of the itinerary to make sure its perfect for your needs. I get so excited saying ‘Congratulations you’re going to Orlando!’ once your holiday is booked. But it doesn’t end there every moment up to you going on holiday I am on hand to answer any questions you may have. From where can I meet Lilo and Stitch to where’s the best spot to watch the fireworks. There is no greater feeling than sending you away on your dream holiday knowing I played a small part in helping that dream come true.

Finally, tell us something we might not know about you! :

I have previously worked at Walt Disney World for 2 years and lived in Orlando. Not only that I also lived in Savannah, Georgia for 3 and half years, so I have great knowledge of many destinations in America.
