Meet

Rachel

I live with my husband and daughter in Northeast Ohio. I am an Independent Contractor with the travel agency, Small World BIG FUN, a small woman-owned boutique agency. We are classified by Disney as a “Platinum Earmarked Agency”, which is one of the highest regarded agency statuses that can be earned with the Walt Disney Travel Company.

I take a lot of pride in being high touch, hands-on, and being incredibly up to date on the current offerings, processes, and available experiences for all the destinations I book. I have personally visited Disney Destinations—including Walt Disney World, Disneyland, and Disney Cruise Line—more than 150 times. Realistically, I’m in a Disney Destination every 4-6 weeks. Universal Studios has become a passion of mine as well over the last few years, as my family has gotten older. I truly know these destinations inside and out. I have been fortunate enough to stay in all the Disney Parks’ deluxe on-property resorts and have sailed every ship in the Disney Cruise Line fleet. I know how to translate my wealth of knowledge into a vacation perfectly designed for your family. Chances are, if you have a question about a VIP experience, hotel, restaurant, or attraction, I’ve done it.

When I’m not working or traveling, you’ll find me in my garage powerlifting or in my kitchen cooking and baking. I’m a busy mom who values “casual luxury”, loves a good dad joke, and could eat a steak for every meal. I can’t wait to meet you!!
