About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Help others when possible, learn, and enjoy life!

ABOUT ME

I just moved from Puerto Rico to Amarillo. I am currently an ESL professor at Amarillo College. I love to travel and learn about other countries and cultures. I love serving. I started a non-profit called Mochilas in Puerto Rico, were we take backpacks filled with much needed articles, such as school materials, to underserved communities. Therefore, when visiting places I always look for the opportunity to help others if possible. I love to snorkel, scuba dive, hike, explore hidden beaches and any other sport that involves the outdoors.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to the fullest and share your blessings with others!
