About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find answers to questions I haven't asked yet

ABOUT ME

Soy canadiense, pero vivo en República Dominicana. I call Santo Domingo my home now, having previously lived in Korea for 2 years, and Brasil for 3. I teach grade 1 at an international school here, and I have had the good fortune to learn while travelling many places on this incredible planet. My job makes me smile everyday, and I honestly can't believe I get paid to do what I do. Estoy viviendo una vida buena en República Dominicana. Feel free to drop me a line, and I'll see if I can help you out.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a circle. If you do good in the world, good will come back to you.
