Gettin' To Know The 570

On this "Enchanting" episode of Gettin' To Know The 570, we had a little fun, because, in reality, we here at GTK already know today's guest! But for those of you out there that don't, we sat down with Marina Luree, owner of Storybook Jamboree Princess Parties & Character Events. A true lesson in never giving up on your dreams, we learned about how Marina worked for The Disney Family of Parks and Entertainment, and how the onset of the pandemic forced her to pivot and return home to start Storybook Jamboree.
