Occupation teacher, writer, artist
Location Washington, DC, United States
Introduction A nomad at heart and avid traveler, Dorian left her Texas roots and served as a U.S. Peace Corps volunteer in southern Morocco. She taught for many years in Dallas, Texas and mere weeks after telling someone she would NEVER live somewhere cold, she met a French Quebecker in Belize while traveling and moved to Montreal, Quebec in 2005. Nine snowfilled years later, she has uprooted herself (and three children) once again to accompany her love on his new dream job as a foreign correspondent in Washington, D.C. New opportunities await as she discovers and refines herself as an artist.
