A lifelong passion for theme parks was sparked during my childhood in New Jersey, when my family would visit Six Flags Great Adventure. As a roller coaster enthusiast, I find joy in traveling across the United States to experience the unique thrills of different parks and add to my coaster count. My ultimate dream destination is Tokyo Disney Sea, renowned for its immersive theming and world-class attractions.

Autumn is my ideal time to visit Florida and partake in spirited festivities. Walt Disney World offers Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, an immersive trick-or-treating adventure where guests can don costumes and pose with beloved characters. For when I’m seeking thrills, Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights provides haunted houses with elaborate theming and jump scares galore.

With nearly two decades of experience as a special education teacher, I have developed a passion for supporting families impacted by autism. I partner with a local organization to provide practical vacation assistance for parents traveling with autistic children, helping ensure these families can enjoy meaningful time together. It is deeply rewarding to leverage my expertise to facilitate inclusive, joyful experiences for those I serve. Though the work is often challenging, I am inspired daily by the courage and tenacity of my students and their loved ones. I feel privileged to walk alongside them on their journeys.
