Chat with me

Wise, but young at heart and open-minded. An “old” millennial with a special connection to proceeding generations and a deeper understanding of Hispanic cultural divisions with a quiet maturity, appreciation and respect for the creations, foundations and hard work of the founders. An independent thinker with leadership skills, vision, and a passion for teaching, learning and education, as well as for counseling, writing, literature and mental health. My hobbies include the arts, skateboarding, blogging, science-fiction, fitness and health, as well as JDM sports cars! .
