  • Aug 2008 - Jan 2009

  In fall of 2008, I worked at Disney Quest. While I worked there, I ran all the rides and also taught drawing classes for guests. In Disney Quest there is about 7 major attractions, each with their own opening and closing procedure. As attractions at Disney Quest, we were also required to learn how to be "Greeters" where we took tickets from guests and escorted them into the building while providing postive and full guest service. In fall of 2010 to feb 2011, I worked at EPCOT. The attraction was called "Kim Possible World Showcase Adventure." We were "Secret Agents" and needed help saving the world. I handed out communicators to children and families to find and search for clues in the countries of World Showcase. It was an interacitve scavanger hunt. We also closed the park with our closing procedures; we had to check all the pavillions and make sure all guests were gone. During the fireworks we worked as gaurds in special area for handicaped and guests in need so they could watch the fireworks.
