About Me |
I currently serve as Co-Director of UPEACE/US, a foundation created in the U.S. for charitable purposes and dedicated to the advancement of peace educational initiatives and programs established by the United Nations University for Peace. I received my B.A. from Swarthmore College where I graduated with honors degrees in both English Literature and Education and my M.A. in Education for Peace from the United Nations University for Peace. After Swarthmore, I earned my secondary teaching certification and taught literature to high school students in inner city Philadelphia. I then worked at Xi’an Teachers College in China as an American classroom pedagogy professor. In 2004, I helped to start what has become a very successful NGO called the Genocide Intervention Network (GI-NET) to raise awareness and money for the African Union mission in Darfur. My family and I have also started a policy think tank in the Czech Republic called Prague Security Studies Institute (PSSI) for Czech university students. Prior to working with UPEACE/US, I was a visiting fellow at the United Nations University for Peace (UPEACE) campus in Costa Rica in the Peace Education Department.
