| Introduction | I first attended Harvard School of Business ('78), then London School of Economics. I have studied international law at Yale and have worked on and off as an economic consultant for major firms and NGOs. I have also traveled extensively and worked abroad. I speak French, Russian and am working on my Dari. Most importantly, I believe in the limitless potential of the human brain, and I believe that birds of a feather should and must flock together. |
