I have lived most of my life in the United States. I have been living in Australia for the past 3 and a half years. I have been a teacher for many years and have a natural way of connecting with people of all ages. I am very athletic and have played and coached many sports. I have also been a clown, specializing in juggling and magic. I am naturally adventurous and love to travel and relate with people of other cultures. I also love nature and often walk to the water to watch the sunset here in Australia. I also enjoy getting onto the water on my standup paddleboard. I am a father of 4 children and understand the feelings of parenting at all ages. I am preparing to walk my first daughter down the aisle this October! I have been married to my Australian wife for 13 years and also understand the dynamics of being a husband. We have a son who lives with us here. I have enjoyed practicing accents and roleplay my whole life. When I was less than 10 I would dress up as the chief inspector Clouseau, including a moustache and walk down to the park. Later in life, I convinced an entire cohort of year 8 students that I was a native Spanish speaking Costa Rican with limited English skills as I taught Spanish. To me, life is truly a stage. I look forward to sharing yours someday!
