.Profile.
| I
was born and raised in West Germany, but my love of travel and meeting
people from different cultures brought me to Canada. I studied French and
Spanish in Calgary with the intent to teach or work as a translator. |
...
...
| After
a summer in Guatemala with its complexities and contradictions, I decided
to go on to development studies. I returned to Central America many more
times as a volunteer, student, and professional, while also learning more
about other regions of the world and various development issues. |
.
| I
have worked on a range of issues related to peace building, participatory
approaches to natural resource management, and public health. |
...
..
| Meanwhile,
my new family took me on a very different journey, learning about baby
care and preschooler-entertainment, patience and human nature. |
...
| Being
somewhat less mobile, I have focused more on languages and translations
again and was happy to find Phil’s Community Empowerment site, which
allows me to do translations relating to development issues. |
