CURRENT MISSION

to teach, to travel, to inspire...

ABOUT ME

I am a 25-year-old settling in to being a real adult! I am a music teacher and can't imagine being much else but I would love to teach abroad at some point in my career. My main instrument is the flute. I love doing volunteer work, and have gone on a number of trips around the USA and to Tanzania. I loved living in TZ so much... I hope I can get back there soon! I love meeting new people and discovering new things!

PHILOSOPHY

"I reject your reality and substitute my own."

音乐、电影和书籍

I am a bit of a nerd... I love Star Trek TOS, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Harry Potter (but the books only). My favorite musical piece is the Music for the Royal Fireworks suite by Handel but I love all kinds of baroque and classical pieces, especially flute pieces that I can play!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Going on safari in Ruaha, Tanzania may have been the most awesome thing I've ever done abroad... and conducting my band in front of Lincoln Center was definitely one of my crowning moments as a new teacher here in the US of A. I recently took students to Nicaragua to help build an orphanage which was an amazing experience!

教，学，和分享

Prokofiev's Theory of Creative Action and the Expression of Life:

1) I am the expression of Life, i.e. divine activity.
2) I am the expression of spirit which gives me power to resist what is unlike spirit.
3) My fidelity grants me uninterrupted adherence to all what is true.
4) I am the expression of love which sustains my constant interest in my work.
5) My individuality is given to me to express beauty.
6) As I am the expression of Mind, I am capable of vigorous creative thinking.
7) As I am the effect of this one great Cause, I ignore everything that does not proceed from this Cause.
8) I am the expression of joy, which is stronger than aught unlike it.
9) I am the expression of perfection, and this leads me to the perfect use of my time.
10) I am in possession of heath, therefore I work with ease.
11) I must have wisdom in order to constantly express it.
12) I am the image of Mind; this keeps me busy to express inspired thoughts.
13) I am honest to myself, and therefore will do the work which is best.
14) As activity is an inherent quality, the desire to work is natural.
15) Whereas I am the expression of soul, I feel the necessity to express beauty.
16) I am spiritual, consequently vigorous.
17) Infinite Life is the source of my vitality.
18) At every moment I am alert to express beautiful thoughts.
19) I am eager to work, because action is the expression of Life.
20) I rejoice in spite of tribulations which provide the opportunity to prove the realities of life.
