My self-summary
A student once told that I’m her “only cool teacher."* I grew up in Boston, went to Tufts, and lived in London for a year. I have summer vacation (be jealous). I make a mean crepe. I have a Boston accent only when I say words like "about." I’m sarcastic, I overuse parentheses, I eat all the free samples at outdoor food markets, I read the NY Times compulsively, I misuse idioms (I may have once said, "Not on my belt"), and I can be very gullible (my Australian friends convinced me that they ride kangaroos to school as children).

*Note: I had also just given that student lunch detention, so take her advice with a grain of salt.
What I’m doing with my life
Learning middle school science two days before I teach it to my students (Teach For America).

I'm likely applying to MBA and MPP/MPA programs over the next year.
I’m really good at
the teacher glare
eating olives
tennis
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
I'll eat pretty much anything aside from fish, but favorites are macaroni and cheese, Indian, dim sum, and brunch. I have eaten Sabra hummus for lunch for the majority of the past 3 years. I also pretend to be a "foodie" and try new foods and restaurants all the time. Have you eaten octopus while it's still moving?

Jon Stewart (The Daily Show), Tina Fey (30 Rock), and Kevin Spacey (House of Cards) are my go-to writers/actors. All are geniuses.
The six things I could never do without
cheese (I'm partially lactose intolerant, and I still eat it)
The New York Times
iPhone
my dog Chip
Google Chat
cooking
I spend a lot of time thinking about
what part of the world to visit next (continents remaining: South America, Africa, Antarctica).

...and whether these essays should start with a capital letter and end with a period.
On a typical Friday night I am
taking the wrong train due to weekend subway construction.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I go to sleep at the ungodly hour of 10pm on school nights. Teaching does that to people.
I’m looking for
