I grew up in Quito, Ecuador and have been fortunate to live in a bilingual and multicultural environment. I am someone that values and treasures my family, friends, and health more than anything else. I am very fortunate to have an amazing family and great friends and have had many wonderful life experiences. I am looking to share who I am with someone who is open to friendship, love, and laughter. Life is what you make of it. Everyday is a blank slate, full of opportunities. I try to give my best to help make the world a little better both in my personal and professional job. I am a life-long educator. I have had numerous roles in education and have the belief that although it might sound naive, education can solve, or at least minimize, and certainly avoid, many of the problems we face in our planet. Aside from education, I believe that kindness, patience, respect, honesty, communication and lots of laughter are the key to most good and lasting relationships. A perfect day for me is one in which people gather together to cook LOTS of yummy food and spend hours at the table eating great food, sipping on wine, sharing stories and lots of laughter while my nieces and nephew run around the house, the dishes are piled in the kitchen and eventually a shared stroll around the neighborhood! BLISS!!
