Degree: University of Rhode Island - Bachelor's, Economics

Outside of teaching, I have a strong passion for languages, cultures, and celebrating diversity. I love connecting with people from different backgrounds and believe that language is a beautiful way to build bridges across cultures. I enjoy traveling, exploring new traditions, and learning from the rich variety of experiences that the world has to offer—especially within the Spanish-speaking community. Music is one of my greatest joys, and I love listening to songs in different languages—Spanish, Portuguese, French, and beyond. I find that music is not only a fun way to learn vocabulary and pronunciation, but also a powerful expression of culture and identity. I also love dancing, reading, cooking traditional meals, and spending time with animals. As a devoted animal lover, I support animal welfare and enjoy the companionship and comfort pets bring. All of these interests help shape my approach to tutoring—I aim to create an inclusive, engaging, and meaningful space for learning where students feel inspired and connected.
