I laugh at almost everything!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I learned to ice skate on a frozen river between Sweden and Norway - back and forth, and back and forth. And we had a picnic with hot chocolate!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like learning languages - they are the perfect balance of puzzle, math, and memorization. I studied Russian literature, centering on the author Sergei Dovlatov.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I make some mean chocolate chip cookies and some nice PB&J yogurt (really).
