Bio:
(this is pretty intense)
I am evolving into more of a person that I want to be rather than what
I was. Acknowledgement of this, I am grateful for this awakening. I do
not take for granted circumstances that present themselves to me for
the lessons learned from these experiences bring me closer to self
awareness. I am awake. In the moment.
On a lighter note- I do what I love and love what i do.
Happy with that , it brings positive results to all. I believe in karma
and practice every day being the best I can be for myself and for
others.
How else would I be able to stay teaching NYC highschool students in
this day in age? Any one else would quit day one. I'm immune to all
teens and wish to make a difference in their lives, staying positive
for our future.
I am all about fairness, consistency, discipline, and of course... FUN!!!
