About Me

8 years ago, I quit teaching for good. My body couldn’t take it anymore. My health was deteriorating. I knew deep down that working in the classroom wasn’t a sustainable career path for me. I was devastated, but also determined.

It all began with my online tutoring business in 2018. Since then, I’ve made money over $85K online in a multitude of ways — teaching, courses, coaching, sponsorships, memberships, affiliate marketing, & the list goes on!

Education/Professional Background

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Economics & Global Studies

  • Studied Abroad in Quito, Ecuador

  • Conversational Spanish Speaker (just don’t give me a grammar quiz!)

  • Master’s Degree in Special Education

  • Former Certified Special Education Teacher

  • 8 years combined tutoring + teaching experience

In terms of my businesses

  • I built a low-maintenance, flexible business out of NECESSITY, not because I’m drinking mimosas on the beach (also, I’ve been alcohol-free for 8 years)

  • Over 85k in revenue over the last 7 years

  • 12k+ subscribers on YouTube

  • My business revenue increased and my workload decreased drastically AFTER I quit social media (no Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Linkedin, Twitter…. i’m free!)

Fun Facts

  • After having children, I used a wheelchair and/or rollator because I couldn’t walk normally. People assumed my disability was “in my head”. I eventually discovered that when doctors can’t find an explanation for an health issue, they label it anxiety.

  • Every day I fight for my health. That means good sleep hygiene, regular physical activity, no social media, & a eating a whole food plant based diet Healing is not linear.

  • Over the last 13 months, I’ve completed FIVE 5k races! This is truly a miracle. A few years ago I struggled to walk a few blocks without pain.
