I started my tango journey around 18 yrs ago. It has become an important part of my life since I retired 10 yrs ago. I travel to workshops, festivals, marathons and will enjoy being a student and sponsor of tango for as long as I'm able......so I have been inspired by all of my teachers over the years who have shared their knowledge with me and I have always tried to share that knowledge with others. working on the festival team is an honor as well as a way I can give back.
