One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent three weeks living with host families in Spain, and I have seen Semana Santa processions in Valladolid and Salamanca!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have taken almost 10 years of Spanish classes, and I love to share the Spanish language with others. I also enjoy talking about ecology and about the research I have done. I love sharing vegan recipes and cooking with others.

I am always eager to learn more languages, new recipes, and how to play new instruments!
