I'm from Redondo Beach, California, and one of those people that dramatically runs towards the ocean. 🌊 I've been lucky to have a lot of really unique learning experiences throughout my life and career (abacus competitions, Japanese calligraphy, TV acting, the list goes on...) and my excitement for learning has expanded into a love for teaching. I'm particularly excited about building learning communities that are participatory and interactive. 💛

When I'm not teaching or designing, you can find me hand lettering, carving wood, stretching, or trying to find the perfect shaved ice. 🍧
