About Me

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Horse riding in Khazakstan. Leading a summer kids club in Jamaica. Travelling around China. Watching the sun rise behind Mount Fuji. Looking at the star when camping in the middle of nowhere. Teaching 5 and 6 year olds, because of the wonder and hunger for learning they have and their profound insight into life.

Teach, Learn, Share

Being a teacher, I love teaching. I can teach people to draw and paint. I am really interested in theology and have read a lot but still have a lot more to learn. I am a great cook too.
