CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm a philanthropic idealist who loves living life to the fullest, being a bright spot in the lives of others, and learning as much as I can. I keep myself pretty busy, but what I love most is being a mother my son. I'm a writer as well as a yoga teacher and instructional designer. I am currently working on my MFA in creative writing and travel to places I am putting into my stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The moment I first saw the Pacific Ocean in Canon Beach, OR. Magical!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching, learning and sharing are all symbiotic in nature. We learn as we teach, and many of our greatest teachers are our students. Sharing is what I do, and I love to share knowledge, stories and experiences with others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my traveling experiences as well as my yoga instruction skills and knowledge about yoga philosophy. I also teach improv dance classes, so I can teach some fun dance moves that we can all do together! I also have a lot of experience in online education and social media marketing, so I'm happy to share my knowledge with hosts.
