I've been living abroad since the summer of 2016. Most recently I lived in Tanzania for three years. Since September of 2019 I've been taking time to do some solo travelling. The vast diversity in this world is what makes it so wondrous. I intend to appreciate it with my own two eyes.

Teach, Learn, Share

In my professional life I've taught university students molecular biology laboratory bench-work, secondary students basic biology and chemistry, and volunteers cultural and diversity training.
In my personal life I enjoy learning from others on any topic they feel passionately about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer a mean card game of rummy or just swap awesome life stories and a good laugh.
