Experience:
I have been an educator for 14 years. I really enjoy traveling and learning about different cultures, and I've taught in many different places around the world, including: Chicago, Spain, Argentina, Egypt, Oman, and Saudi Arabia.
Hobbies:
I love spending time with my family and pets, and I am a huge outdoor enthusiast. I enjoy hiking, canoeing, boating, camping, swimming, and snorkeling. I also love to read and write, (my goal is to be a published author some day)!
Community Service:
I believe it's very important to give back to the community. I am currently one of the Directors of the Mini Donut Foundation, a non-profit organization that hosts a racing event, (a half marathon and 5k), every September. All of the money we raise goes back into different organizations here in the Coulee Region that focus on suicide awareness, prevention & education, as well as other mental health initiatives. www.minidonutfoundation.com
Miscellaneous:
I speak Spanish and Arabic. My husband is from Argentina. I met him while I was teaching abroad and we were married in Buenos Aires.
