ABOUT ME

I was born and educated in New York City, USA, although I now live in south Florida. I have traveled throughout most of East Asia either as an English teacher or as an organic farming volunteer for the past ten years. I have taught English in Tokyo, Japan, Seoul, South Korea, and Shanghai, China. I look forward to meeting with you and chatting about our respective cultures, as well as eating some yummy night market food. Hope to meet you soon!
