Hi! I’m Kayla and I absolutely LOVE helping first time Disney World guests plan their once in a lifetime vacation! I remember the very first Disney trip we took and how fun, but totally overwhelming and draining it was to plan, research, book, and remember to do all the right steps. After going on many many Disney Vacations, we have learned quite a bit and found ourselves helping friends and family with their own vacations.
Around three years ago, my husband Mark Alan & I started our YouTube channel, Hemphilly Ever After, all about Disney World Planning Tips. As things have grown, we’ve been able to build a community around Disney loving people all while helping them plan their vacations! While we no longer are booking travel ourselves, we are still very close with our Goofy Getaways fam and love helping connect guests like you to their very own Goofy Getaways Travel Consultant!
Disney isn’t my only passion. I am a plant parent and spend probably waaaay too much time (and money) on all the fun greenery in our home. My current obsession is learning Spanish together with my husband on Duolingo. Also food… I’m obsessed with good food! (It’s our favorite reason for going to Disney World!)
We recently moved to from Kansas to Orlando to be right in the thick of the magic to be able to help our followers even more! It’s truly a dream come true!
My main role with Goofy Getaways is to help the vision we have for the company come to life so that we can reach more of you. (That means I make the website and branding look pretty - but alot more too). I guess you could also call me the resident ‘Disney Influencer’ - but really my goal is to help you plan the best trip possible!
