I have volunteered with several wonderful organizations, including Farm Sanctuary in Orland, California, and La Brigada de la Basura in Puerto Vallarta, México.

My 2014 volunteer experience, with WorldTeach Colombia, presented itself at an optimum time. After working and fundraising for several months, I relocated to the coastal city of Barranquilla as a native-speaking English teacher. Upon fulfillment my volunteer year, I stayed in Colombia and currently call this beautiful country my home.
