  • Description

    Hello, I'm Meera! I love the natural world, star-gazing, and connecting with others across cultures and varied life experiences. Some things that bring me happiness are meeting different animals, connecting with other women, reading about ecology, art, fantasy, memoirs, and stewarding the planet. I received my bachelors from UCLA in International Development and I am interested in pursuing a career in environmental stewardship through policy development for climate resilience and ecologically centered infrastructure. Estudié Español por años, pero necesito más práctica hablando con otras. Soy mejor leyendo y escribiendo español que hablándolo.

  • More details about your skills

    I specialize in teaching reading, writing, and speaking in English, and have worked as an academic tutor for five years in a variety of subjects. I also have experience volunteering at the Ballona Wetlands in Los Angeles as a docent to help educate the public about the wetlands and our efforts to safeguard it. I am an academic at heart but I am adventurous and love working with my hands too. I speak some Spanish and can write and read Spanish decently. I have experience camping outside, hiking at high elevations, solo travel, and some cooking experience too.
