My name is Kari.
I was born and raised until I was 10 in Dallas, Texas.
Sometimes I think my memories belong there, but I have come to love Florida more and more since the day we packed up and moved here without ever seeing it beforehand.
I still feel as if I am in a dream when I see
pelicans flying,
deer in my backyard,
palm trees out my window,
egrets,
storks,
and herons in my front yard roaming.
I know that there is a reason and a purpose for me to be here right now. Who knows where I will be in a few years, but for now, this is my home, and I will enjoy every minute of it!
I am…
a graduate of Florida Atlantic University (as of 4/30/09)
certified to be a K-5 (Elementary) and 6-9 (Math) teacher.
a beginner photographer.
only 19 years old.
excited to see what the future is going to bring.
I know and love…
American Sign Language.
a little Arabic (مرحب !), which I am learning right now.
how to play acoustic guitar (at least I am learning).
