Profile Information

about me: Nací en Rochester, NY cerca de Canada.
Ya, sueño con ganar la vida en Sudamérica. Tal vez la mejor oportunidad para hacer esto sería trabajando con una compañía sudamericana que vende sus productos en los EEUU.

Mi lugar favorito es mi casa. Vivimos en el centro de Atlanta y puedo caminar a la plaza de tiendas más grande de la parte sureste de los EEUU. Puedo montar en bici muy facilmente para ir al supermercado, el banco. Puedo ir a mi trabajo en subte.
Cuando salgo de mi casa prefiero ir a la playa en St. Simon's.

Hay muchos libros que me gustan. Incluyen los libros de Pablo Coehlo y la novela, "The Kite Runner."

De música me gusta un artista californiano de los Blues: Keb Mo.

En LatPro, espero conocer más gente y lograr un trabajo con una compañía sudamericana.

what languages do you speak?: Castellano, inglés

what is your current, past or ideal job title?: Enseño castellano a niños de 5-11 años.

your connection with Latin America?: He viajado seis veces a Buenos Aires y cuatro veces a Chile. También conozco Lima y Ayabaca, Perú.

your favorite Latin American city? vacation spot? food?: Me gusta Buenos Aires por los bulavares, su ambiente cosmopolitano, la manera que habla castellano la gente, el cariño de la gente y sus lugares de interes como sus museos. También me gusta la Ciudad de México por su arquitectura y su mezcla de cultura azteca y europeo.

what countries have you lived in? worked in?: Desgraciadamente solo los EEUU. Tenía una beca por atletismo en la universidad y esto me bloqueó de buscar los estudios en el extranjero.

what companies have you worked for?: Coca Cola, Bausch and Lomb, Omni Business Products, The Dekalb County School Board, Atlanta Public Schools

Let's get together

I travel a lot. And when I travel I try to visit schools because I am a Spanish teacher here in Atlanta and want to compare teaching methods. Five years ago I was visiting Buenos Aires and arranged to visit a Catholic school. I wanted to go to an English classroom to compare the way the class is taught. But the principal would only let me go to a social studies classroom. What can I talk to them about, I thought? So I talked about one of the bigger social issues here in the USA: illegal immigrat… Continue
