CURRENT MISSION

I'm here to share my language and culture with others and to learn more about the world!

ABOUT ME

I am ridiculously optimistic and open-minded! I enjoy new ideas, points of view, and experiences. I also love learning about others' lifestyles, experiences, opinions and stories.

I'm a language fanatic too! ...so if I butcher your language, I apologize- but I'm not afraid to make mistakes and sound ridiculous- this comes with learning new languages :)

I'm a big fan of traveling too (as you might assume from being on this site)! Meeting new people is always exciting, and I understand each person is unique and accept that. Maintaining meaningful friendships is great too!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm here to put a smile on others' faces. I am here to motivate you to put on your best performance, inspire you to pursue something you've always wanted to do, or even just get you pumped up for that workout! I love making others happy and showing you how capable you really are of achievement.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I took a 14.5 month trip all around Asia after completing my MBA - learned and experienced much more than I could ever explain :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe that you treat others as you'd like to be treated, because to my experiences thus far this has been true.

When you're more excited to see the facial expression of a loved one opening your present than you are to open your own, I think you're headed in the right direction.

We all have amazing things to offer this world, just be yourself and others will be able to see those shining qualities in you :)
