About Me

Just finished studying at the University of Oregon's Robert D. Clark Honors College with a Degree in Geography, focusing on Geographic Information Sciences. I'm living in Madrid, Spain and working as a language assistant (or auxiliar de conversación) at a primary school right outside the M-30 ring.

I'm a lactose-intolerant vegetarian and I like to cook and bake!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to help you with your English. If you speak Spanish, French, Japanese, or Chinese, I'd like to practice with you (although if you're helping me with the latter two we'll probably be starting from scratch)!

I also want to learn about the politics, governments, bureaucracies, and customs of your home country/region.

Practice your English
Share info about culture in Spain and the US
Cook (or bake) you something
Ramble about my travels and my politics
