Teaching culturally relevant high school English and finishing my M. Ed while staying connected to my body and my baby.

ABOUT ME

I love being with my son. He's 3. We play soccer, sing songs, cook good food, and read books. I graduated with my Spanish degree in December and achieved fluency over a year later thanks to Mexican friends. I love doing massage and going to yoga. I love making time for the little things and the sky.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to be comfortable with uncertainty.
