improving the lives of children through the art of storytelling

Kylee Lauren McGrane-Zarnoch is a New York City based entrepreneur, speaker, content creator, and founder of A Moment of Magic Foundation. She is a passionate advocate for mental health, childhood cancer, the power of creativity and vulnerability, and chasing your dreams (especially the ones that seem impossible).

In December 2014, Kylee had the idea to dress up like a princess and visit local children's hospitals. After her first visit to a children's hospital in New York, she fell in love and A Moment of Magic was born.

After a little bit of magic in November 2016, A Moment of Magic's story went viral, grossing more than 65 million views worldwide. The international attention helped the organization gain the momentum needed to make Kylee's dream come true and allow A Moment of Magic to be adopted by colleges and universities across the United States.

Today, A Moment of Magic has engaged more than 1,300 college student volunteers from more than 30 colleges and universities to partner with 300+ hospitals and NPO's to provide creative programming to more than 100,000 children.

Kylee's book, Your Magic, benefits the organization's mission and encourages children to find their own magic within.
