Description
Hello!
I grew up in Seattle, Washington (USA). I primarily work as a teacher. I've worked with all ages: babysitting toddlers, teaching at daycares, working in educational theater, teaching chess to kids, teaching english to adults, caring for the elderly. I've just graduated from Western Washington University with a Bachelor's in Linguistics and a TESOL certificate. Previously, I trained as an actor and musician.
I'm looking forward to the next stage of my journey. I plan to continue teaching and learning. I'm particularly interested in developing language skills and deepening my spiritual practice. I enjoy serving diverse communities.

More details about your skills
I've studied music and theater, as well as early childhood education and meditation. I am a skilled piano player and songwriter with a lot of experience in musical theater. I work well independently as well as collaboratively. I will deeply engage in any project. And when offered a role, I will fill it with purpose.
I am patient and nurturing, I've worked extensively with young children (ages 1-5) and have some experience with special needs children. I am capable of responding with awareness and kindness even in challenging situations.
More practically: I can cook (vegetarian/vegan preferably), clean and tidy around the house, supervise children and take care of their needs. I am a native English speaker who has studied linguistics and several languages -- I can teach English! I am also physically fit enough to assist with most labor. I hope to be of whatever help I can :)
