I was born in Florida and I am Chinese on my mother's side and Lebanese from my father's. I traveled throughout Central and South America during my childhood. These experiences impacted my undergraduate and master's studies greatly, allowing me broaden my fields of interest. I graduated from Florida Atlantic University with dual degrees in Anthropology, Interdisciplinary Social Science, and Social Work in 2008. I moved to Quito, Ecuador with the intention of becoming an experienced TESOL (Teaching English to Students of Other Languages) instructor. I also earned my master's degree in Social Environment Studies from FLACSO (Facultad de Ciencias Sociales Sede Ecuador) in Spanish. Being bilingual has enabled me to comprehend the intricacies of translation and cross-cultural communication.
