CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty animated middle school english teacher in Kansas City, MO currently. Really easy going. While my life can not be in complete disarray, I don't mind rolling with the punches at all. I love telling stories, I love hearing stories. I'm a craft person and a self pronounced pinterest/stumble upon fanatic. I also hashtag my life away...#noshame.

PHILOSOPHY

"It is far better to observe than to absorb every word, feeling and attitude, to get over-involved, or react too much. Observing creates an inner focus that allows us to see reality."

Interests

I love a conversation that can teach me something. I love exchanging experiences with people and having a great time. Meeting people makes life interesting for me. I also have a passion for photography and aesthetics. I love being around beautiful things. (It's the libra in me) and decorating. I love reading and writing. I'm trying to get better at travel writing. I try to laugh for a good portion of the day.
