Hello,

I am an aspiring international development professional with a masters degree and volunteer/internship/Peace Corps experience in South Africa, India, Ukraine, and Morocco.  I have 2 years experience in the private sector, a certification in project management, and my MSc is in international development, but a lot of my experience is in education and youth.  I'm interested in finding work in international development as a project or program associate doing project support and backstopping.  My long term goals is to work in project design and management.

I am looking for a mentor that would be interested in helping me navigate the world of international development work, suggestions for future professional development, and overall career advice based on their experiences.   

Personally, I love to cook, read (history, political science, international affairs, sci-fi), travel, exercise, and enjoy a good IPA.
