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

After 1978, I went back to school in a MPA program, worked in health care administration for 20 years, got married, have a beautiful dtr. graduating from college, and am now working at an Office on Aging in Knoxville, TN. I am called whenever anyone needs a translator in this office, but my Spanish is very rough!

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

Good exp. My dtr. is now considering volunteer work of a shorter duration, so maybe I've passed something along.

Anyone you are looking for or would like to hear from?:

Anyone who was in Nicaragua 1976-78
