Hobbies

To teach and to tutor -- that's what I was born for, and that's what inspires me. I've traveled to 30 foreign countries and speak a spattering of languages. Being active is fun for me: hiking, swimming, jogging, and bicycling. I love dogs, especially Whippets. Maybe you share my enjoyment of food, art, and the power of history.
