I am a teacher (post-secondary) and writer. I live with my 11-year-old and a cat. I play fiddle and accordion. I am not shy, but like my own company, but also like learning about and connecting with new people. I love learning about others' passions and interests. I speak Spanish and French, though I am not a strong writer in these languages. Being kind and open to others is important to me. I also am a roller-derby referee.I will never send nor ask for money.
