Description

People who know me would describe me as adventurous, curious, and someone who makes others feel at ease. I love meeting new people but I also spend a lot of time wandering around the outdoors by myself. if I had to describe a perfect day it would include both time spent in nature and a meaningful conversation with a stranger. I've enjoyed my Workaway experiences for the hands-on work outside and the opportunity to meet some incredible people!

My interests are: travel, exploring the outdoors, linguistics, early childhood education (Waldorf & Montessori) literature, poetry, playing piano, board games, philosophy, art, spirituality & meditation.

I've worked for 10+ years as a teacher and several years at a tech startup, roles that require you to learn quickly as you go - so I bring that spirit to my Workaway jobs!

Last year I decided to take a sabbatical from my tech startup job. I joined Workaway so that I would be able to spend time outside and have a hands on routine while I did some soul searching. My Workaway experiences were life changing and opened up a new vision for my career. Through my Workaway network I ended up joining a preschool project in Dominican Republic. Over the past few months I've been working as the lead teacher to launch the school and help them to develop new curriculum, train new teachers and document organizational processes, and most of all, build lasting relationships with the families that joined the school.

I'm currently in the process of preparing to launch a similar project in a new setting - a nature-based preschool in SE Asia.

I am really interested in learning more and acquiring skills that pertain to permaculture and biodynamic farming as I plan to incorporate this in my future projects.
