  Bio
  I taught 6th grade in Missoula, Montana for a year, moved home to New Jersey and taught for one year before moving to Sumatra, Indonesia to teach English to High School aged children.  Later I moved back to the east coast and taught children who were on Broadway Musicals and on the Disney Channel as well as several movies.  In my spare time I love to mountain bike, ski, fly fish, travel and go birding with Robin Hoover and Kathy Steinbaugh! I volunteer at the Birds of Prey Foundation in the ICU working with sick or injured raptors. I also volunteer and travel with People to People Student Ambassadors. I have lived and taught in New Jersey, New York, Montana, California, Sumatra, and England before settling down in Colorado in 2001.

  Bio
  I’m a MD/DC native but I knew my future was in the mountains, so I moved out to Colorado in February 2015. I’ve been an art teacher at summer camps, a nanny for many years, and a substitute teacher. The arts have always been a huge part of my life. Whether I am performing, directing, or drawing, I love making art with people. I am thrilled that my path brought me to BCD! When not at school I like to play floor hockey, hike in RMNP, read, and watch The Office.

  Tourism Specialist
  Bio
  I was born and raised in Argentina. I love working with kids, and have been in the education field on and off for thirty years. I ran a home-based preschool in Spanish and worked at Community Montessori Elementary School for three years as a para-educator. Most recently I have been teaching Spanish to children and adults at the Spanish Institute for the last two years.

   

  I met my husband, a German national, in 1990 when I visited friends in Colorado. A year and a half later we were married in Argentina and returned to Colorado to stay. I love spending time with family and friends and traveling (especially visiting my family in Buenos Aires). I also enjoy reading and playing tennis.
