Little Known Facts: While my friends and colleagues think I should have done standup comedy, my family is grateful to keep me away from the mic. I am always in awe of the beauty that the mountains and the night sky hold. I enjoy learning about and discussing global politics, world history, religion, and post-colonial identity. I am a tried-and-true conversationalist and enjoy engaging in thoughtful and interesting discussions with those that also enjoy contributing their own ideas. I also obtained a fellowship as an Acting Instructor in Seattle.
