A passionate educator and researcher who combines passion as a global explorer with academic research and teaching. I immerse myself in places and interact with local communities to understand the "DNA" of the place. Expanding academic relationships at local, regional, and global levels is my professional mission, as a way to develop my personal, institutional, and community competitive advantages. I value interpersonal relationships, passion, and authenticity, to unlock and develop others' potentials through empowerment, conviction, and persuasion.
