My Story - Narrative

My Story - Introduction

My story is simple, yet it is also complicated when compared to many other people’s lives. Originally from the U.S. (I was born in Milwaukee Wisconsin – home of Harley Davidson Motorcycles), I have lived and worked in a number of different countries since I was 18 years old, and have travelled to many more in my life. Because I had studied the German language for six years in high school, and because my father worked for Siemens Corporation in the US, I had the chance to travel and work in Germany starting two months after my graduation from high school for 14 months until I returned and started the university. That was the beginning of my travels, which continued after I earned my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees. I have a happy family of my parents and two sisters who I visit every year, but I live on my own these days.

My interests include travelling, swimming, cycling, cooking, and foreign languages, as well as reading and learning about other cultures.

I have spent the last 2 ½ years in the UAE which I consider my home now. I have been impressed on how modern, forward-thinking and progressive the country is.

I look forward to learning more about all my students in order to make this term a successful and enjoyable one.
