PHILOSOPHY

I love making a difference in peoples lives. Working with kids is so amazing to see how much one can really mean to them and helping them grow and just letting them grow to their full potentials. Its so amazing to see what a difference you can make in their lives. I love to help people and making people laugh. Always be yourself.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a lot of experience with children as well as my culture in South Africa is somewhat different to here in the States. Like for one not all South Africans are black lol thats one of the biggest stereo types i've came across since i've been in the USA. For I am white. Yes it does exist in SOuth Africa lol. I've experienced many things in the countries I've lived and visited. No place is the same.

I've also been learning the Ukulele. Also enjoy writing poems and in my journal.
