Hobbies
Originally from Orlando, FL, I moved to Yakushima, Japan with the JET Program and continued teaching English abroad. I now live in Toronto with my spouse and adorable cat. Snow still amazes me. I enjoy riding my bike, being outside, watching soccer, hiking, traveling the world, spending time with my family, and studying Japanese. I've never met a bread I don't like; the same goes for chocolate.
