Ruby Mei
Profession: Educator
Interests: As an educator for 20 years, I have distinguished myself as a classical dancer and musician, but presently, I'm focused on reviving the art of elocution, rhetoric, and oration along with establishing an art form of social interaction.
As a mentor, I've received honorable achievements and recognition from the president of San Marcos baptist academy; The Diocese of the holy family catholic school in Round Rock Tx; The Cecchetti Council of America; Austin Dance Arts; and The Colussio School of Music. Outside of the arts, my interests lie in developing a greener world as I am devoted to permaculture.
(on a side note) : I Love everything about Jesus, Food, and Manga. I don't believe there is anything I can't do, but there are things I just simply won't do. I always have a need to accomplish or achieve something, so as a crafter I'm always working on multiple projects. I love learning so I'd like to say I'm a student for life.
