One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled to several parts of Africa, mainly in Nampula, Mozambique and South Africa and worked for a summer on a sustainable business micro-finance poultry farm. There a team of other engineers and myself created several projects to assist with the health and wellness of the farm. We were able to immerse ourselves in the culture and our work.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can knit really poorly, pull apart a chicken, share mediocre stories, and I'm pretty good at trivia. Hopefully building more skills to share soon.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories and experiences. Also, I can cook some good Mozambican food.
