Shannon has an Bachelor’s Degree in business management and entrepreneurship from Kansas State University and an MBA from the same alma mater. She completed the Disney College Program internship during her undergraduate program which taught her about all things Disney, but also professionalism, customer service, and what it means to make magic for guests. She wanted to continue her passion for the Walt Disney Company and help others experience the magic of Disney Destinations, so she started Sprit of Adventure Travel in May 2017.

As the “Chief Magic Officer” and agency owner, she helps clients with recommendations, booking the vacation, and planning all the Disney details. She saves clients time with her expertise, allowing them to have a stress-free vacation. She has visited Walt Disney World® Resort over 30 times (not counting weekly visits while employed as a Walt Disney World® Cast Member during the college internship), Disneyland® Resort 4 times, Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa in Ko Olina, Hawai’i, voyaged 5 times on the Disney Cruise Line, and even visited Hong Kong Disneyland. Chances are — she’s stayed there, ridden that, eaten here, and bought the Minnie ears! Best of all her vacation planning services are free to the client when she books the vacation.
