Hi! I'm an English teacher and a linguist, and I'm currently finishing my PhD. I love animals (especially cats), and I love to do artistic things like music, writing, theatre, crafting, dancing, and drawing. I love discussing and discovering things about language and history. I'm politically progressive and passionate about equal rights. I love meeting people from other cultures and hope to do more traveling again soon. I speak Spanish and I have studied a little bit of German, French, and Turkish in the past. I'm currently learning Korean!
