One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most amazing thing I've ever done was to spend a month in London studying Theater. It was BRILLIANT.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love learning about other cultures and traditions- I like to try to understand the perspective of others. I am always hungry for more knowledge in the arts, especially music and theater. I would be happy to share any of the knowledge I've been privileged enough to receive, from information on the arts to what I know (so far) about cooking and baking, to what experiences I've gone through to make me who I am today.
