| Introduction | I'm originally from Colorado and graduated with a BSc in Economics and International Political Economy from the Universitiy of Puget Sound (Tacoma, Washington) in 2008. I lived in Bassila, Benin, West Africa from 2008-2010 as a Peace Corps Volunteer, where I learned about development and economics through grassroots experience. I participated in, organized, and led various projects, including co-organizing Benin's largest girls' empowerment camp, leading a weekly girls' club for students, and assisting small businesses and NGOs with management. Currently, I am living in Nottingham, UK and studying for an MSc in Economics on a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholarship. I'm a featured jobseeker on Economist Jobs. |
