Music, Language learning.
Skilled in a variety of instruments including guitar, violin, cello, and bass. Music is a way that I inspire, motivate, and express myself. Having taught both private music and language lessons I have a strong since of purpose in both and want to expand my horizons. Future interests include learning both sign language and Spanish.
