Marie
Marie was born right here in Cleveland, Ohio but raised in sunny California. And that is where her own Disney fairy tale began. At the age of eight, Marie attended the opening day of Disneyland in 1955. In 1959, she saw the inauguration of the Monorail, Matterhorn and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea along with Walt Disney himself, Annette Funicello, over 2,000 dignitaries and many Hollywood stars.
After 30 years in banking, and even more trips to Disneyland and Disney World, Marie began working at a travel agency to sell Disney trips. When Disney Cruise Line came on the scene is 1998 and before the first sailing, Marie had already blocked and sold 80 cabins. That same year, she started her own travel agency and in July, she and her family attended the Christening of the Disney Magic.
A fairy tale, indeed! Marie has loved being in the travel business and helping to create magical dreams and lifelong memories for all of her clients.
