My goal is to provide guidance for individuals seeking to improve their reading, writing, and musical abilities using effective practice techniques to become an independent learner. I have a bachelor's and master's degree in Business Administration from the Isenberg School of Management from UMass Amherst. In my professional life I interact with a variety of people in large and small groups and use a variety of methods to communicate, ranging from public speaking to formal writing to mixed media like video conference and PowerPoint. I have been developing my Spanish fluency since High School and enjoy interacting with native speakers and those looking to explore the language. Independent travel has taken me all over the Spanish speaking world from Barcelona to San Juan to Los Angeles. I have been playing guitar for over 10 years and love encouraging people how to play. Whether you need help learning the basics of Spanish, want tips editing that English literature paper, or you can't wait to play your favorite songs, I look forward to working with you!
