CURRENT MISSION

Lead a life that is unique to me.

ABOUT ME

I am a music teacher. I chose the profession because I'm interested in what people can achieve when they work together. What's more fun than being in a band?

Being a teacher is also cool, because I get to travel in the summers. I love planning for the next trip! There are SO many places left to go and SO many things left to do!!!

PHILOSOPHY

I prefer "when I..." conversations over "what if..." Want to make a difference? Go out and do it. Want to lead a more exciting life with more fulfilling relationships? Make it happen! I'm doing my best to be the change I want to see in the world.

Music: Where to start? I LOVE finding something new.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lost in Beijing with no money, no translator and no transportation. I found the hotel as my shuttle was packing up to head for the airport.

Teach, Learn, Share

I cook from scratch, every day. Pre-packaged, processed junk is nowhere near as fulfilling as the basic skills of creating and preparing real food with real ingredients. I'd love to share my reasons and my food with a community interested in learning.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, China, Croatia, France, Italy, Slovenia, Switzerland

Countries I’ve Lived In

United States
