I am 25, I received my undergrad degree in Elementary Education from Arizona State University. I then lived in Fatick, Senegal with a program called YAGM where I worked teaching computer and English classes in a church computer lab, and learned how to cook and dye fabric at a center for promotion of women.

Now I am back in AZ teaching and working at some churches and learning more about sustainability at ASU.
