You know when guests long for new activities
to do in theme parks? Well what I do is come up
wit fresh new and exciting outside of the box events
to execute to help keep guests coming back for more. I worked at a small
birthday party company and helped establish never been done before
events at Jumpalooza Hangout, from Open Houses to Disney Nights, I
helped to establish the company as a pillar in the community before the
Coronavirus Pandemic shut down the company.
