About Me

Hi there,

I've spent several years working in education in Peru, Colombia, and Australia, traveling along the way. In the very near future I will be starting a job as an Aquaponics Instructor in Santa Clara and I am excited for the work to begin. I have a background in theater, I've installed small and large aquatic research systems, and I occasionally work on voice over projects.

Traveling, sharing, and co creating are actions I am committed to. I enjoy moving slowly, teaching, learning, and building.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled through South American a while back, starting from Peru, to Chile, Argentina, and then Bolivia. That was an amazing trip!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have experience building and maintaining aquaponic systems. Which is using fish waste as manure to grow plants in an enclosed system. Its a great alternative way to grow vegetables - go urban gardening!!

I am learning how to code using the Arduino platform.

I love acting, if you need help with an audition piece or scene I would love to help you work on your blocking or stage presence, offering my perspective. Thespian love!

Si esta aprendiendo el idioma de ingles, puedo asistir con este tema!!

You want to learn how the California education system works - I got answers!

I am also familiar with the Australian Education system.
