Meet Jessica!
Jessica is a Disney and Universal Studios travel expert based in Maryland who loves helping families plan unforgettable, stress-free vacations. Growing up in a military family meant moving often, but no matter where life took them, her family always found their way to a Disney park each year. Those visits became a treasured tradition and sparked a lifelong passion for all things Disney—movies, parks, merchandise, and of course, the magic of the experience itself.
Jessica’s love for theme parks doesn’t stop with Disney. While living abroad, she spent summers in Los Angeles visiting Universal Studios Hollywood, where her fascination with movies and behind-the-scenes magic truly came to life. Getting a glimpse into how her favorite films were made helped her fall in love with the storytelling and creativity that make both Disney and Universal destinations so special. That same love for behind-the-scenes work now fuels her passion for vacation planning—she handles all the details so her clients can enjoy a picture-perfect trip without the stress.
Her love for travel extends far beyond theme parks. Jessica is a frequent explorer who enjoys discovering new places through cruising—her favorite way to visit multiple countries in one trip. She’s sailed with Disney Cruise Line, explored the Mayan ruins of Costa Maya with Royal Caribbean, and journeyed along the Danube River with Viking Cruises, experiencing historical gems from Germany’s lively Oktoberfest to Austria’s grand Schönbrunn Palace and the architectural wonders of Hungary.
Being Filipino, Jessica holds a deep love for visiting the Philippines, where time with family and the warmth of her heritage make each trip special. Her recent travels across Asia—particularly to Japan and South Korea—allowed her to dive into new cultures, savor local traditions, and blend discovery with familiarity.
Whether you're planning your very first trip to Walt Disney World or dreaming of walking through the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Jessica brings personal experience, thoughtful planning, and a touch of magic to every itinerary. When you work with her, you're not just booking a vacation—you're gaining a travel partner who’s as invested in your adventure as you are.
