I am founder and editor of DisneyNews.us. My passion for all things Disney goes pretty far back to watching The Wonderful World of Disney on Sunday nights and enjoying my first trip to Walt Disney World in the mid-80's. I have since returned to the magical place more than 30 times. I started this site when I came to the realization that I spent a significant portion of my day reading articles about Disney and watching Disney content with my 8-year old, so it made sense that I would start sharing some of what I read and see and build a little community around it. Other interests include 80's nostalgia, vintage toys, video games, LEGO, Star Wars and tech gadgets. Other site isDMR.
