I grew up in the Seattle area and for as long as I can remember, have loved to travel and explore. This love of exploration stretched the perimeters of my world to be wider and wider, eventually leading me to France, where I fell in love with the beauty of the French language. I majored in French at the University of Washington and then went on to complete a Master’s in linguistics at Paris-Sorbonne University.

After living in France for a few years, I returned to Seattle, where I have been working as a French teacher, translator and interpreter since 2018. A lifelong linguiphile, it is a true joy to be able to help others connect through language and to share and live out my passion. I was very fortunate to have had some incredible French teachers throughout my studies and now aspire to give back and be the same for others.
