I was born and raised in Davis, California during which time I spent 13 years learning a variety of things in Girl Scouts, I also was an avid western-style horse back rider (but I'm not one of those weird horse-obsessed girls.) In high school I attended one of Bill Gates' New Technology schools where I still could not learn how to work a computer to save my life. However, I learned how to work well under pressure, think on my feet, and how to present myself as a professional in whatever field I had to specialize in that day. After graduating high school I moved to San Francisco and began my work pursuing my incredibly useful and highly valuable degree in Anthropology while minoring in Human Sexuality studies. During this time I held a variety of positions from tutoring to working in high end retail. Once I graduated after completing my fourth year I immediately signed up for an archaeological dig in Belize so as to avoid the awkwardness of the classic graduation ceremony. I spent one month in the blistering heat hiking, digging, and preparing my liver for adult life. Upon returning home from Belize I began working in Corporate Governance in a bay area start up. It was here I developed my pure hatred for cubicles and a corporate lifestyle and decided it was time to leave. So I packed my bags and headed for Korea, my current home. Here, I am head teacher at a hagwon, or private language school, where I have learned the limits of my patience and my endless love of the little drunk people I teach, also known as children to most.
