About me

Gender Female
Location Charlottesville, VA
Introduction I am 26 years old and live and work in Charlottesville, Virginia. I went to the University of Virginia and got a job teaching 3rd grade at a school that I fell in love with while volunteering. Although I enjoy teaching and can't see myself really doing anything else, I also love the way that cooking and baking help me escape the stresses of my job. When I'm cooking, I don't have to give directions, repeat myself, or look around for confused faces; I don't have to be perky or even professional. I can just be me!
