CURRENT MISSION

Teaching at a high school near Beirut for the year

ABOUT ME

I just moved to Lebanon to begin a job as a history and reading teacher! I could not be more excited to be living here and enjoying all that this beautiful country has to offer (while also absorbing as much Arabic as possible).

I am a recent graduate of the University of Dayton. I love learning, traveling, running, drinking coffee, reading, the outdoors, and eating good food. I am also a bit of a nerd, thus I very much enjoy long intellectual conversations about history and politics.

"The world in which you were born is just one model of reality. Other cultures are not failed attempts at being you. They are unique manifestations of the human spirit." Wade Davis

PHILOSOPHY

Be good to people and they will be good to you.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

The most terrifying thing I've done recently is riding on the back of an Egyptian guy's Vespa through the streets of Cairo.

I teach 9th grade world history at a British school outside of Beirut. If you want to learn about the Renaissance, the American Revolution, or the Ottoman Empire I am your girl!
