Interests: I am a lifelong learner with a variety of experiences in the corporate and non-profit worlds.
My biggest passions include helping others, learning languages, travel, exercise, and health. I am not fluent in Spanish, but it is a long-term goal of mine that I have been striving to achieve for many years. My other goal is to visit every Spanish-speaking country (so far I have made it to Mexico, Cuba, Guatemala, El Salvador, Panama, Colombia, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Argentina). I also have visited many other countries outside of the Spanish-speaking world and hope to continue.
I also love nature, animals, and being outside. I have two cats named Cheech and Mijo.
I also love discussing business and the software industry, television, pop culture, history, cooking, science fiction, and world events.
Fun fact: I can name every capital of every country in the world!
PS: I'm not a big fan of sports! I am happy to discuss whatever you would like, but just so you know, I don't have much sports knowledge.
