Summary

I am an energetic, lovely person who has developed a mature and responsible approach to any task that I undertake and any situation that I am presented with.


I have a great instinct to protect children. I communicate with them in the best way, from love, because I am aware that by educating with love I am helping to form self-confident young people.
