I’m a curious, big-hearted adventurer who has spent over 25 years in education, teaching in the States, leading schools overseas, and even co-founding and opening an international school during my 17 years abroad. Those experiences shaped me into a leader, storyteller, and connector who thrives in the unpredictable joy of guiding others. People often describe me as energetic, adaptable, and a touch mischievous. I’ll laugh at my own jokes, clap at the end of movies, and turn even a grocery run into an adventure. At my core, I believe people are the best part of every journey, and that true connection happens in simple, shared moments: a meal, a laugh, or a story that turns strangers into friends. Endlessly hardworking and fiercely compassionate, I carry with me not just lessons from classrooms and leadership, but a love of adventure and the belief that every chapter is worth living fully.
