I'm generally easy-going and positive, and I can get very enthusiastic about little things like a good cup of coffee or a walk out in nature. I love visiting botanical gardens, beaches, parks, and museums. I'm fond of murals and enjoy looking at interesting architecture and art.

I work remotely in the field of Learning and Development offering training, facilitation, coaching and mentoring, and I recently completed my Yoga and Meditation Teacher certification.

Looking to support my team at work, I also earned a Stress Management Consultant certification, and I offer stress management workshops both virtually and in person.

I have had some wonderful experiences and met some great friends through Couchsurfing at meetups in Puerto Rico and Costa Rica. I really enjoy getting to know new people and listening to their stories!
