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

I've been involved in international aid in Africa work for the past 20 years since leaving Peace Corps. I am now working for Oxfam as their Humanitarian Policy Adviser for the Horn of Africa.

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

Nostalgia! They were some of the best years of my life as it was the most challenging time in my life (heat, dust, living in a village, etc). Really forced me to engage with people at the most fundamental levels of human interaction.
