Über mich
CURRENT MISSION
Learn and teach around the globe, spreading my vibrant light wherever I go
ABOUT ME
I am still figuring myself out. I think the more you interact with people, the more you learn about yourself. That's my mission....that and helping children to open their minds to reading and exploration.
I currently teach high school English + Film at the American School of Dubai. Prior to that I was teaching HS English at the German School in Washington, DC. I love it! I have dreamed of teaching overseas and returning to the life abroad that I grew up with for quite some time, and now I am finally fulfilling that personal goal.
Laughing is important for vitality. Learning is essential for growing. So I like laughable learning experiences? I smile a lot. I seek out interesting people that will help me grow and with whom to share incredible experiences!
PHILOSOPHY
Everything is blooming most recklessly; if it were voices instead of colors, there would be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Be kind, be positive, reuse, open up your heart to others and you will usually be pleasantly surprised.

Musik, Filme und Bücher
I love independent films and music. I am particularly fond of electronica and indie rock. Grimes...Sigur Ros...DJ Shadow... but I also love instruments like the sitar and mandolin.
I'm in love with Murakami's writing...but love reading in general. I seek a good story...well-developed characters...emotion, but not at the cost of quality word choice.
Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe
I've done "tree pose" atop a rock on the breathtaking Cape of Good Hope and slept in a tent near a lion's den (my dad's idea) in Kenya when I was four. A lot of crazy stories in between.
Lehren, lernen, teilen
Hmmm.... I am very knowledgeable on novels, music, art, film, photography... My current goals are to learn how to ride a motorcycle, improve my snowboarding techniques (i.e. get down without falling :)), get my scuba certification.
