Hispanohablante (Spanish Speaker)

Award-Winning Performer
I am a trained classical soprano (think: opera) and as a teenager performed in dozens of musicals, acting, singing and poetry recitation competitions. This was some time ago, but my theatre training continues to be one of the most influential forces of my life.
Cuisine Explorer
I LOVE food (Who doesn't?) and think it's an incredible way to connect with cultures and people. I specifically love learning to cook traditional recipes from other cultures, and eating through the pastry cases of my neighborhood cafés.
