Michaela Meyers

I have my bachelor’s degree in psychology, which has allowed me to learn how to work with many different types of people and cultures. My work experience with Disney has given me experience with guest services, on-the-spot problem-solving with viable solutions, and addressing guest concerns in a fast-paced high-volume environment. As a Resort Sales Associate, I have worked on a Team and attained vast knowledge about all the Walt Disney World Resorts, Parks, and services while working there. 

Over my career with the YMCA I was responsible for planning the Mission Markets, which enabled up to 20 vendors to attend and market their small businesses. I also provided community outreach to the businesses local to the YMCA to promote YMCA services. I also worked customer service as a membership advisor.

I am professional and passionate about everything I am tasked with. I am happy to work flexible hours to suit the needs of the job I am given to do. 

I am a loyal employee and ready to take my career to the next level. I am confident I can bring my Disney & YMCA  experience to any company and grow more. I am well-rounded and understand different cultures. My mother is from England and I am a British Citizen. I recently moved from the USA to here to look to expand my horizons even further and bring my knowledge I have gained in the US to England. I also lived for three years in Italy as a child. Aside from those three years I was born and raised in Tampa, Florida. I believe knowing and believing in a company’s culture along with its mission and purpose is an integral and important part of an employee’s reason to work anywhere.
