About Me

I am very curious about people and cultures. I love learning and right now I just want to explore and learn as much as I can. Traveling has opened my mind in ways I’m so grateful for. I’m a very open minded person and traveling has helped me view the world from a different perspective. Every person has a story and way of thinking & I am always looking to understand people more.

My mother in Panamanian and my dad is Cuban. I was born in the UK and moved to the US when I was 5 years old. As a kid, I lived in 5 different states and discovered my love of painting, singing, dancing, writing and communicating. I am also a very active person and did many sports in school (soccer, swimming, distance running, volleyball).

I attended university for 2 years studying international business and marketing with an emphasis on professional sales but then decided I wanted to get to know myself on a deeper level before finishing my degree. Since then I began connecting with people from different backgrounds and cultures, traveling, and looking at the world from a different perspective.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Took a uni honors course & learned the history, literature, and politics of Ireland then took a 10 day trip to explore the country! It such a cool experience and very rewarding to study so much and then experience the people, culture, and place. I’ll never travel to a place without having an understanding of these subjects.

Spent 6 months working seasonally as a cooking show host in Alaska!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to speak Spanish, how to read your birth chart at beginner level Hellenistic and Vedic astrology, and yoga sequences!

I’d love to learn about the way you view the world, your mindset, life journey, and how you ended up where you live.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m half Panamanian and Cuban! I’d love to share more about both cultures and teach (or practice) Spanish together.
