About me:
I grew up in the Midwest--Minnesota to be exact--but have spent the last decade either in the Pacific Northwest or abroad. Experiencing the world, its people and places, is what drives me.I'm in graduate school to become a professional EFL teacher. I've taught in Chile and South Korea but without credentials so it was mostly volunteer work and working with fairly rigid curriculum. I'm looking to expand my teaching abilities and possibilities. A master's in TESOL allows me to do this. I'll be in the Peace Corps from summer 2012 until Fall 2014 so I'm not sure how much I'll be able to use this site but I love having it available! |
Why do I run:
It's a time for me to meditate and refocus. I just finished my first marathon in Seattle on November 27th, 2011. Training for my second now. |
Why I started running:
I started running after high school just for fun. I've grown to love it and run fairly regularly. |
