I love connecting with others and spreading joy. I am motivated by creativity and ideas. What brings me happiness: nature, flowers, animals, people, meditation, dancing, eating, exploring.

My background: I have been an English and social studies teacher in the U.S. and Mexico City. I have the most experience with kids ages 11-18, but am able to take care of kids at any age. Most recently, I've begun an online business and have departed on a trip-around-the-world! I have lots of experience dog sitting and cat sitting, too.

What I can help you with—my best skills:
-English conversation and teaching
-Elderly companionship

In my free time I would be: working remotely, meeting new friends, going on walks, relaxing, reading, writing, wild swimming, and exploring new places.

*I like cats but I am slightly allergic. It's not a problem if you have one but I will keep my bedroom door closed. :)
