Summary of Experience

I have an undergraduate degree in multimedia journalism and several years experience in marketing/advertising. I am proficient in conversational Spanish and ran a surf camp/surf school in Costa Rica for a year and a half. Prior to the surf camp I volunteered teaching a class to local women in CR as well. Most recently I taught surf lessons and surf camp in the Outer Banks of NC during summer 2013. I'm passionate about the condition of the earth's water and about women's role in local communities
