My goal is to not just share the magic, but to be a blessing to others, helping them find joy, connection, and growth in their own journeys.

Vision

How We Got Here
I’ve always believed Disney is more than rides and shows—it’s about creating experiences that inspire, connect, and transform us. Professionally, I’ve built a career grounded in transformational leadership, education, and storytelling. I’ve helped students, leaders, and organizations reach their potential through coaching, teaching, and creative content design.

My career path includes:

Consultancy in Leadership Design, eLearning, and Career Development – guiding organizations and individuals in building skills, programs, and strategies that drive success.
Business Development & Partnership Development – creating meaningful collaborations and growth opportunities.
Project Management – leading initiatives from vision to successful completion.
eLearning & Instructional Design – crafting engaging, accessible learning experiences for diverse audiences.
Post-secondary instruction in Student Success Strategies, Leadership, Human Resources, and Training & Development.

This blend of expertise means Happily Adventures After is more than just a Disney blog—it’s a resource that combines real-world leadership strategies, educational insights, and magical storytelling.

💫 Why Trust Me as Your Disney Guide?

Disney isn’t just a vacation for me—it’s a way of life. I’m a Walt Disney World Annual Passholder who visits the parks regularly, explores Disney Cruise Line, and has stayed both on-property and off-property. That means I can give you insider tips on both experiences—how to save money, when to splurge, and how to make the most of your time no matter where you stay.

Beyond my love for Disney, I bring:

🎓 A Master’s Degree in Organizational Leadership with a focus on student success and development.
📚 Post-secondary teaching experience in Student Success Strategies, Leadership, Human Resources, and Training & Development.
💼 Professional expertise in consultancy for leadership design, eLearning, and career development.
🌐 Business development, partnership development, project management, eLearning, and instructional design experience.
🎭 A background in performance and storytelling, making every review and guide engaging and memorable.
🧭 Transformational leadership insights to help you plan adventures that inspire and uplift.
💡 Customer service and experience design skills, inspired by Disney’s legendary guest approach.

I don’t just review attractions and restaurants—I share honest tips, real stories, and lessons learned from my own adventures so you can make the most of yours. Whether you’re here for the rides, the food, the shows, or the leadership takeaways, you’re in the right place.
