I currently live in Seattle and love to travel. Other places I have lived include Tahoe, Southern California, and Illinois. I am a teacher and own a local tutoring business. I am passionate about education, healthy food, exercise, adventure and my friends. Being a good friend, spouse, and dog mom are the most important things to me. I am an active member of the Burning Man community. My husband and I have a 1978 Volkswagen bus named Hilde that we take on all sorts of summer adventures and festivals in the beautiful PNW.
