Teacher expertise and credentials
My first business was a bakery, and I loved creating all the fun baked items and seeing how my customers responded to them. Additionally, I have traveled to 48 countries around the world, and I have studied and taught various languages. I love these six countries and am excited to present their culture and their baked goods with students.
