During a private ceremony at Fantasyland Theatre in Disneyland Park on September 18, 2025, the 2026-2027 Disney Ambassadors of the Disneyland Resort were selected. Michele Mary from Resort Parking and Transportation and Oralia Neria Felix from Operations Training were selected as the next ambassador team representing thousands of Cast Members across the Disneyland Resort.
Meet Michele Mary
Michele Mary was born and raised in Buena Park, California which is just north of Ball Road that runs behind the Disneyland Resort. Michele began her Disney career in 2000 with the Resort Transportation and Parking team. After spending five years with the company, Michele temporarily left to pursue a master’s degree in geology at the University of Utah.
Michelle then returned to the Disneyland Resort working on Main Street, U.S.A. as a merchandise working lead in the Emporium. Then in 2024, Michele rejoined Resort Parking and Transportation as a salaried leader until she was selected as a Disney Ambassador this past week.
Meet Oralia Neria Felix
Oralia Neria Felix is a Southern California native who began her Disney career in 2017 as an Attractions Cast Member in Cars Land at Disney California Adventure Park. She soon became a lead, trainer and scheduler position which led her to becoming a Step Into the Magic facilitator. Then, Oralia became a training specialist with Operations Training, supporting the onboarding process for new Cast Members of the Disneyland Resort.
Welcome Michele and Oralia
Join me in congratulating Michele and Oralia as the 2026-2027 Disney Ambassador Team for the Disneyland Resort. On your next visit to the resort and over the next two years, you may see Michele and Oralia in the theme parks carrying out the Disney legacy that was started by Walt Disney himself in 1965.
