Country of Service: Ecuador

Training Group: Omnibus 69

Arrival Year: 1993

Departure Year: 1995

Work Description:

Youth Development
Worked with elementary-aged children associated with a comedor program (Fundacion Reinas De Loja)

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

My husband and I came back to Texas. We worked in our field of social work (he as a marriage/family therapist) and I as a director for a non-profit youth service organization.
Currently, we own a painting business and have two daughters.

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

It was an eye-opening experience that allowed me to understand and scrutinize the country I live in better. Living in a different country, speaking a different language and living in a community totally different than mine was an experience I will never be able to equal again. I loved it, but am thankful for where I live and the place I am in personally even more.

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

Anyone from my Omnibus 69, or other volunteers who've served in Loja; specifically I'd love to know if there has been others who've served in my agency "Fundacion Reinas De Loja"
