Where would you like to work?: Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, The Middle East, North America

Share more about yourself.: I'm will be entering my last year of college this fall, and I am excited to start a career internationally. I'm a Management major/French minor at Georgia Tech, and I could see myself possibly teaching Business English. I would like to do more non-profit work in the long run. I do a lot of service in Atlanta, and I just finished up a year with AmeriCorps: Jumpstart. I am very interested in sustainability, human rights, and alternative politics.

I became interested in the CELTA after backpacking Europe by myself in summer 2010. From that point onward, I knew that getting a job in the US wasn't an option. There is so much to see! I currently work at Atlanta English for Successful Living and really enjoy it, so I thought that teaching abroad might be a good place to begin my post-university life.

I really like going to shows and galleries, free things, comic books, and street art. I also recommend that everyone make a couchsurfing.org account.

I learned how to ride a bike this summer!
