Hobbies
I have a wide variety of interests: travel near and far, amazing food, gorgeous hiking trails, beautiful gardens, art museums large and small, almost any kind of music, dramas on stage and screen, reading, and boating (kayak, sail, motor, foot peddle). My personality is positive, encouraging, and empathetic. I speak softly, and often develop a rapport with teens fairly quickly. I especially love back and forth conversations when working with students.
