Until 2019, I served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Namibia focused on Community Economic Development. Before that, I was a high-tech executive, small business owner, consultant and business broker.
19 days before I leave
Scheduled to fly out on April 11th for a staging day in Philadelphia, then an overnight flight to Windhoek via Johannesburg. The Pre-Service Training will be held in Okahandja, 40km north of the capital, with an intense schedule covering language, cultural and technical topics. 6 days per week for 9 weeks, complete with mid-term and final exams.
