About
Yes, I know I picked a lot of headings, but many of them are overlapping. I tried to focus on work that I've been paid for or published. In short, I started my career working in theatres and art galleries. I moved onto teaching English in public universities, colleges and prisons. I worked in Mongolia for about four years with the US Peace Corps, Spring Institute and UNICEF. Returning to the states I worked with refugees and then in community economic development, most noteably as a Presidential Managment Intern at the US Department of Housing and Urban Development and US Agency for International Development. I am currently pursuing a PhD in social welfare at the University of California, Berkeley and work with EcoCity Builders in Oakland, CA.
mr. richard,
what's new? how's life?
