Profession: Early childhood educator, University Language Tutor/Coach
Interests: My interests are being outdoors and extreme sports: rockclimbing, skating, electric/mountain bike racing, hiking, running, swimming, and more.
Language learning and reading are my favorite hobbies: I began studying Spanish at age 9, and am now natively fluent. I also taught myself Portuguese, and am learning French.
My most memorable life experience was studying abroad in Spain + Africa. It made me hungry to know more about other people/cultures. This is also why I love watching documentaries.
