Karlee was born and raised in the United States in Syracuse, New York and recently graduated magna cum laude from the University at Albany with a degree in Homeland Security. She is currently pursuing her Master of International Affairs through the same university. Karlee’s intense passion for the English language, reading, traveling, and discovering other cultures is what led her to obtaining a TEFL certification to come and teach with Bilingual. Her love for education motivates her to provide the best learning experience possible for her students while  igniting this same passion for English and culture within them. When not in the classroom, Karlee enjoys reading a good book, spending time boating and jet skiing with her family, riding horses, and searching for new cuisines to try.
