I live in Alabama with my husband and our 3 children. My first visit to Walt Disney World was in 1978 when I was 3 years old. I’ll be honest. I don’t remember much from that trip, other than meeting Mickey Mouse and riding Dumbo. Fortunately for me, I got to go again 10 years later, and that is a trip I will NEVER forget. From the moment I walked right down the middle of Main Street U.S.A., was greeted by Mickey Mouse himself, and saw the beauty and majesty of Cinderella Castle, I knew I was “home.” THAT trip turned into many Disney trips, some to Walt Disney World, some to Disneyland, most of which I took with my own family of Disney fanatics.
Over the years, I have gained a great deal of experience in planning amazing Disney vacations. I have been on trips with everything from large groups, families of all sizes, down to just little old Disney-obsessed me. I know how to make the most of any of these vacations, no matter what the size of your group. I am so blessed to be able to do this professionally, and it is my sincere desire with every one of my clients to plan a Disney vacation that makes you feel exactly the way I feel when you step through those gates-like you just got “home.” I truly love what I do and hope you?ll allow me the privilege of helping you create your own wonderful, magical memories to last a lifetime!

My love for Disney began when I was a young girl, and my parents took me to Disney with my brothers for a boy scout trip. During High School, I attended Benjamin Russell in Alexander City, AL, where I was a majorette in the band. We were given the opportunity to perform at Magic Kingdom during one of their parades, which was a dream come true and such an honor to have been chosen. Walt Disney’s vision was to dream, believe, dare, and do. I think this is still true today!
I began my travel experience at another home-based travel agency, where I learned about the travel business. During this time, my love for Disney and the magical experience Disney offered became the focus of my travel business.
The many years of experience in sales and the importance of customer service, loyalty, and dedication for every client to have a magical experience is when Fairytale Journeys, LLC was created. For the past 20 years, my family and I have visited Walt Disney World, Disney Cruise Line, and Aulani. I enjoy helping others plan their magical vacations to WDW. I give each client the personal service that they should have. I ensure everything is taken care of for their magical vacation from the beginning of the reservations to the end. That’s why it’s so important to book with a travel agent so that you can receive a personal touch on your vacation.
I am here to help my clients with dining reservations, itineraries, travel arrangements, and most of all, dedication to making sure that each of my clients receives the best price for their magical vacation!
