Summary

I love working with a variety of people to accomplish a shared goal. Whether it be mobilizing a group of English teachers to share best practices in the pursuit of continued professional development or bringing clean water infrastructure to a rural village – thus improving the lives of thousands of community members – I can’t help but see the value in the interpersonal connections and working relationships that are formed through building mutual trust and respect. I have enjoyed many successes on a variety of projects while serving as an educator for Peace Corps Namibia. My personal and professional experiences have taught me the following about myself: I have the ability to work both collaboratively and independently with little external guidance. I love working with children, especially those who need extra support. I am constantly using a growth mindset in seeking to become a better person. I enjoy meeting and learning from new people. When I am not working, you can find me outside exercising, sailing, or drinking tea and appreciating nature. Reach out if you want to talk about development, education, volunteering, or yoga.
