Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I am on assignment teaching math to the future leaders of the world
ABOUT ME
I am a traveling teacher in the international school system and currently looking for the place where I will call home for the rest of my life. Until then, I am bouncing around from place to place learning from various cultures. Before The Netherlands, I found myself teaching in Norway and then the US Virgin Islands. Before that I called Dallas, TX my home and Louisiana before that.
I love to sing and do musical theater as well as karaoke. I also love scuba diving and food.
