Bring us up to date on your life after the peace corps:

I now live and work in Silver Spring, Maryland. I used to work for the U.S. government with EPA and USDA for a total of 14 years. I am married to Mark Henderson and I have two daughters Taylor (9) and Chaylin (6). I have started my own business working as a real estate investor and developer in the Baltimore/Washington D.C. area. I keep in contact with Bethany Hopkins Batch 13 and Colette Caesar Batch 16. They both are doing great.

Any thoughts you have now looking back on peace corps days?:

I had a great time as a volunteer in Sri Lanka. There were days when it was dificult, but I lived with a wonderful host family that helped me through.
