I am Spanish language instructor with Varsity Tutors teaching beginner to advanced students. I'm also a behavioral scientist with 10 years of professional experience designing and implementing behavioral interventions for development programs throughout the Spanish-and Portuguese-speaking world. My hope for her students is that they will fall in love with the Spanish and Portuguese-speaking world and decide to engage with, work with, and/or live amongst the beauty of the diverse people and cultures found there.

I'm a native of San Antonio, Texas and holds a B.S. in international health and neuroscience, with a minor in Spanish, from Trinity University. For four years in college, I taught an anatomy in Spanish course to remove barriers to entry to medical school for native Spanish speakers. I graduated while abroad on a Public Health, Traditional Medicine, and Community Empowerment program with the School for International Training in Chile. I became fully-immersed in using Spanish daily while living with my host family and building life-long friendships with local friends. Following this, I served as a rural health volunteer in the US Peace Corps in Belize.

I hold an M.A. in international economics and development from the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, where I reached Intermediate Mid II level in Portuguese within a year, through testing into higher levels and excelling through placement exams. I was a graduate consultant for the first asset management firm serving vegan female entrepreneurs in Mexico City, Mexico, where I designed and led qualitative fieldwork in Spanish in Mexico. A month after graduation, I flew to Colombia on a competitive fellowship to conduct qualitative fieldwork on gun violence prevention with the Johns Hopkins Center for Global Health. I interviewed politicians and stakeholders at the state level who are involved with making state gun policies and led focus groups with youth and women's groups who have been impacted by gun violence in Cali, Medelln, Bogota, and Barancabermeja.

Most recently, I adapted parenting manuals for families in Colombia, Bolivia, and Guatemala with Promundo-US, with the aim of reducing violence against women and children at the household level, working with Portuguese and Spanish speakers. I currently also am teaching fellow with the Global Language Network in Washington, D.C., where I teaches classes of students learning Spanish and Portuguese, ranging from beginner to advanced levels.
