Robin’s first trip to the Magic Kingdom was at ten years old and she has been hooked on the magic ever since.

She loved all things Disney as a child, especially on Sunday nights when the Wonderful World of Disney was on television and she watched with her family. Robin has raised her own children (now grown) on Disney and now they have a Disney loving granddaughter.

Many other companies go there to see their amazing hospitality and learn their second to none customer service philosophy.

Family vacations meant just one thing for young Tifani- yearly trips with extended family to go camping at Fort Wilderness at Walt Disney World. She has the fondest memories of her Memaw cooking breakfast for dozens of people over an open fire to prepare everyone for the joys of Disney. The family was there for so many firsts- the opening of EPCOT, experiencing Muppet*Vision 3D, tasting Dole Whip, and more! But the real joy in those trips was being immersed in Disney Magic. The real world melts away when you are on Disney property, and Tifani couldn’t get enough of it.

Now that Tifani has a family of her own, she continues that tradition with her own kids. Campfires and tents have been replaced with snacks around the world and comfortable hotel rooms. Family trips to the parks are often centered around food, colorful costumes,
and meeting beloved characters. Tifani also works in a runDisney race or two when she can. She has planned trips for herself and for friends on both coasts and has experience working with disability access services and meal planning for allergies.
