Discover the world with Magic Happens Here Travel

Growing up with classics like The Lion King, Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast, it was always a childhood dream to visit Disneyland. And WOW, it did not disappoint! Visiting Disneyland not only fueled my love for the parks, but also for Walt Disney himself. Over the following 18 years I've continually visited many of the parks annually, and each time I get goose bumps knowing that I'm "home".   

Creating memories with friends, family and all your loved ones is something you can't put a price on, and the memories I've created are some I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

My admiration for Walt Disney came about from learning of his desire to create somewhere everyone could visit, connect with, and feel truly immersed in imagination. 

To quote Cinderella, “a dream is a wish your heart makes” and my wish came true with my first visit to Disneyland (1991), and I have been keeping that dream alive with every visit I have made since then. 

All the fabulous attractions and rides, to the parades and spectacular fireworks and light shows, creating an experience like no other. This really is “The Happiest Place on Earth”.

I love talking Disney and I, like Walt himself, want every guest to have a truly amazing experience and create lifelong happy memories. With thoughtful planning and time, this is possible for everyone.

The magic of Disney has always been a significant part of my life. Since I was a young girl, I've been going to the Disney parks with my family, and that's where my love for Disney truly began. Enjoying and creating amazing memories with family and friends has been a constant source of joy for me. I collect Disney pins every time I go, adding to my cherished collection with each visit. 

It’s not just the enchantment of the parks that captivates me—it's the thrill of the rides and the incredible blend of technology, engineering, and imagination that brings them to life, it really is mind blowing in the most incredible way. I've also been lucky enough to experience the magic at sea with Disney Cruise Line in the Caribbean and Mediterranean!

I understand that everyone’s Disney experience is unique. Whether you're chasing high-speed thrills, looking for a magical family adventure, or hoping for a bit of both, I'm here to help tailor a magical Disney holiday just for you, one enchanting ride at a time.

 My first introduction to Disney came as a young child, watching Fantasia with my grandfather, a lover of classical music. That initial spark ignited a passion for Disney, and long before Disney+ existed, I built an extensive collection of Disney VHS tapes, including my all-time favourites—Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, and Aladdin— which were played on repeat. The joy of finally visiting Disneyland and experiencing the magic in person was a dream come true!

Over the past 14 years in the travel industry, I’ve dedicated myself to making travellers’ dreams a reality by crafting unforgettable experiences. 

As a Cruise Specialist, I was thrilled when Disney’s Wonder arrived in Australian waters, bringing the enchantment of Disney closer to home.

Being a part of the team at Magic Happens Here has brought my love for travel and Disney full circle. I couldn’t be happier than to assist our guests in creating magical memories that will last a lifetime!
