Her current role in the program is working at the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction in Magic Kingdom where her primary responsibility revolves around the safety and well-being of guests, as well as the smooth operation of the attraction.

In addition to her work at Disney, Tiahna is also continuing on with her WSU studies online while also taking professional development classes through the Disney College Program.
