Description

Seeking long term placement, months to a year. With an exchange, I am looking for a private room with meals included, as I will be bringing professional experience with life experience.

Recently TEFL certified to tech English.

Also, recently assisted at adult guest houses in South France, Malaga and Gran Canaria, Spain. Have assisted managed at and hostels in Romania and Vieques Puerto Rico.

I have managed events for politicians and ministers, celebs; photo/music video shoots, press conferences, art festivals, fundraisers and weddings in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
(2 years on contract)

I am responsible for creating my own opportunities writing, producing and directing on a Broadway stage, and as well as producing a world music concert at Lincoln Center, working with work artists. All under a sponsored non-profit, raising awareness of domestic violence.

More about me:
With a positive attitude, seeking only positive environments; my on-going journey is to learn as much as I can about myself, and grow with each experience. I approach each adventure with an open mind, heart, and professional attitude, proving that age is but a number.

Communication is key from our initial interaction here. It will speak volumes. I also trust my gut when choosing a Workaway host. If you're interviewing me, I'm also interviewing you, as it is a 2 way experience. I hope you agree :)

I am aware of my talents; my integrity, my great work ethic, I am honest to a fault, and my common sense. You will not regret bringing me on board. I come with real world references beyond reviews here.

Born in British Guyana, mixed race, but grew up in New York City, and well rounded.
My background includes media, stage producing, playwrighter and director in NYC. Have managed events both in NYC and San Juan, Puerto Rico. I've assisted managing at hostels in Vieques, Puerto Rico two winters, and in Bucharest, Romania. And, have assisted at several luxury guest houses in Spain and South of France.

These experiences were truly life redefining. My most recent trips include three months each in Czech Republic, Colombia, Germany, Poland, Croatia and Bosnia. Other journeys include France, Italy, Hungary, Croatia, Greece, Mexico, Trinidad and Tobago, and Dominican Republic.

I am seeking to expand upon my travels, while gaining new experiences and inspiration. I gain inspiration from traveling, connecting with myself and people from all walks of life.

Thank you for taking the time to learn about me as I look forward to connecting with you.
