My passion for teaching comes from a love of all things connected to my culture and heritage. As a 2nd generation Latin American, I've grown up with family elders who have taught me about the ways of my ancestors from an early age. From traditional cooking to raising cattle, I am lucky to share these cultural teachings with students yearning to connect with the past while having fun in the process.
