Behind the Magic
Hello Friends! I’m Camille, a wife of over two decades, a proud mama to five incredible humans, and a creative entrepreneur based in sunny Southern California. With a Master of Business Administration (MBA) in Organizational Leadership and my day-to-day work as an HR Executive, I wear many hats, but my heart always finds its way back to storytelling, creating, and building connections.
Sparks of Magic is the heart of my work, where my passions for design, branding, travel, and people intersect. I’m blessed to partner with my incredibly talented husband, Jeff, combining our skills in design, branding, and woodworking to craft meaningful projects. From developing businesses and curating brands to consulting on people and operations, I find joy in helping others bring their visions to life.
Over the years, I’ve learned that I’m happiest and most aligned with myself when I’m creating. Whether I’m sharing my thoughts here on my blog, leading inspiring conversations through Black Disney Moms or Raising Dreamers, or designing handcrafted goods for leaño+jean, my work is fueled by connection and creativity. And now, with Magic and WanderLuxe Travel, I’m curating magical travel experiences to help families and groups explore the world with joy and intention.
When I’m not busy running my businesses, you’ll find me spending time with my family, planning our next adventure, writing, or soaking up the magic of Disneyland—my happy place. As a Black and Filipina woman raising multicultural children in America, I also share my experiences navigating life, love, and family in a beautifully diverse world.
