About Me
Hi, friends! I'm Elizabeth! I'm a wife, mom of six, and proud Gramma living my dream in North Carolina. My days are often busy managing my big family or with my volunteer work as a child advocate in the foster care system.
I've been vacationing at Walt Disney World regularly since the 1980s, and my love for the parks grows every visit. I would live in Toy Story Land in Disney's Hollywood Studios if they would let me! My favorite hobby is planning my big crew's next Disney trip, but if I have time to spare, I enjoy practicing yoga, going to the theatre, or playing pickleball.
I love that Walt Disney wanted the parks to be ever-growing and evolving. While I am a nostalgic at heart, I am always excited about what's next on the horizon. I can't wait to answer your questions and help you have the Best! Vacation! Ever!

About My Family
My husband, Hector, and I have been married for three decades and have six daughters ranging from teens to adults! In the last few years, we have added three sons-in-law and a grandson to our crew, and we couldn’t be more thankful. We are quite the diverse group, in every sense of the word. Our adult children all live nearby, and we love getting together for celebrations, holidays, game nights, or random Tuesdays, and yes – we still take Disney vacations together!
Taking a large family to Walt Disney World countless times over the years has taught me to be strategic in my planning. I’ve learned the art of managing multiple kids of all ages, preventing meltdowns (mostly ;)), and securing lightning lanes for a family of 12! I am thrilled to bring this experience to planDisney! And all those trips have paid off, because my children have all become huge Disney fans themselves!

About My Disney Experience
My first visit to Walt Disney World was a school trip in sixth grade. I was completely consumed by the magic and haven't looked back! Every time I pass under that railroad station and begin my walk down Main Street, U.S.A., I am that 11-year-old girl again, grinning ear-to ear without a care in the world (except maybe getting a Creme Brulee Croissant from Gaston's Tavern).
I registered for my first Disney Princess Half Marathon in 2010 and have completed 25 runDisney events over the years. Seeing my favorite characters along the course is all the motivation I need. There's something magical about running through the parks with guests and cast members cheering you on.
What a gift it has been to introduce my husband, my daughters, and now my grandson to the magic of the Disney Parks. How fun it is to share that joy that I first experienced 40 years ago. Although, once we get on Toy Story Mania, it's every man for himself, and I'm showing no mercy.
I look forward to making many more magical memories with them and helping you make your own!
