Dennis Glover

Travel Advisor

Hi, I’m Dennis! 🌟

With years of experience as a Cast Member at Disney and as an employee at both Universal and SeaWorld, I’ve gained invaluable insider knowledge of Orlando’s top attractions, restaurants, and hidden gems.

My family and I live and breathe Disney, and my wife’s role in Universal Guest Services has only deepened our passion for creating unforgettable vacation experiences.

Beyond the parks, I’ve worked at luxury resorts like Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club and the Four Seasons, where I mastered the art of 5-star hospitality.

I take pride in extending that same level of personalized service and attention to detail to your family’s vacation, ensuring a seamless and magical experience from start to finish.

From the best-kept secrets in the parks to the finest dining options and activities beyond the gates, I’m here to make your Orlando getaway one to remember. Whether you’re dreaming of a Disney adventure, Universal thrills, or a relaxing all-inclusive retreat, I’ll guide you every step of the way.

Let’s start planning your dream trip today! 🏰✨🎢

Leanna Dade

Travel Advisor

Hey y’all! I’m Leanna, mom of 2 and Disney Travel enthusiast!
A bit landlocked here in New Mexico. I love planning vacations (both big and small) especially to Disney Resorts.  
 
My first trip to Disney World introduced me to the magical escape that only Disney can provide its guests, and since then I have been hooked!
 
I firmly believe that everyone should get to travel and experience life outside their day-to-day.  Helping you to build and tailor a trip that will meet your family’s wants and needs is what I am here to do! From Disney Vacations, to Cruises and All Inclusive resorts, I would be honored to plan your family a magical vacation!

Keith Padin

Travel Advisor

Hi, I’m Keith, a father of four kiddos living on a farm in New England. 

I have been a Disney fan my entire life – it seems Disney has always been a part of all those core memories for me. I visited as a performer in high school, I’ve gone with adult friends, taken my family, and even spent our honeymoon at Walt Disney World. I’ve experienced the parks on both coasts and very recently was able to spend a day at Disneyland Paris, which was an adventure. I love trip planning and finding ways to get the best value and make the most potent memories on a family vacation. I have many tricks and tips up my sleeve, from the pre-planning excitement to the trip itself, and I can’t wait to share them with you. I’m an open book for Disney trips and here to help you. Let’s chat!

Bria Flesher

Travel Advisor

Hi there! My name is Brianna (Bria for short) and I am very excited to start this journey. I am turning 27 this year, I mainly reside in a south suburb of Chicago, Illinois and I work at an elementary school during the day. I went to school for psychology down at UCF and emphasized in working with children and have been working in the education setting for about 3 years now. I do love to travel, go to festivals and fairs, WDW is my home away from home. While I was down in Orlando for college, I worked and got to go to Disney a lot with different groups and it was always magical. 

Some of my hobbies while I’m not working include hikes with my dog, Zelda. Creating by drawing or writing, driving to new places, and getting lost in a good book. I love concerts, being adventurous and seeing where this life is going to take me. I am a yoga enthusiast and nothing beats yoga on a paddleboard! 

Let’s Travel!

Jerod Henderson

Travel Advisor

Hi, I’m Jerod Henderson from St. Louis. 
I have adopted the “Disney Adult” lifestyle mentality and I’m okay with that!  Even though I love making an adult tip out of a long weekend, I absolutely make sure to plan trips for my family to the Most Magical Place on Earth. 
We’ve also spent time aboard the Disney Cruise Line ships and will continue to grow our Castaway Club level.
 
If I’m not enjoying the Walt Disney Company, I certainly enjoy traveling to any big city and enjoying touristy sites, afterall- they became popular for a reason and I enjoy seeing what the big deal is all about!
 
I hope to help you find your next big adventure, or simply find your toes in the sand.
