AURA LÓPEZ CONTRERAS
Favorite color: Purple
Favorite phrase: Always be yourself unless you can be a unicorn, then be a unicorn.
A fun human, maybe a lost forest fairy that went dancing from Mexico to London then to Italy, back to Mexico and now here in West Marin with her cat and husband where she is the Spanish specialist at the Lagunitas School District. Aura was a Montessori experiment that turned out quite well, went to art and dancing school (yes there is such a thing) where besides learning how to jump and turn, she learned how to make dance videos, teach dance, and other fun stuff. She is passionate about creativity, outside-of-the-box solutions and making dreams happen. Aura believes that we are all artists. She has been a Montessori aide, Spanish teacher, dancer, circus performer, cat lover, librarian, a daughter, partner, book-eater, nature admirer, writer, art manager, life coach, bookseller, and wants to be a mom some day soon.
