Pursued a Master in City Planning from MIT, with an emphasis on urban development issues in developing countries. A tough haul, but I'm graduating and it feels great!

A truly rare and special experience - to make human connections with folks so far removed from lifestyles we're accustomed to here in the States. Changed my outlook in so many ways.

I'm always happy to hear from PC staff or Volunteers I served with...
