  About Me
 
I am a current student at Iowa State University. I love working with kids and have worked in a children's program at Chestnut Mountain Ski Resort for a year and I am currently obtaining my certification as a Ski Instructor so I moved to a different department (a teaching total of 3 years), however I am the only female on staff so I am usually teaching kids every weekend. Obviously I am a skier, also a snowboarder, I love the outdoors rain or shine. I am a German major at ISU, and I am currently taking a semester off in order to make money to study abroad. Therefore I am open to work anytime, including some weekends. I love animals, and I am a very outgoing individual.
