Beltsville

Summary

Over the past twenty years, my professional career has been shaped by diverse experiences that have enriched my skills in teaching, education, and communication.

Serving as a missionary in Madagascar (five years), Zimbabwe (one year), South Africa (nine years), and the United States (ten years) has given me the privilege of immersing myself in diverse cultural settings.

This cross-cultural exposure allows me to integrate seamlessly into various groups, and facilitate meaningful engagement.

My earnest desire is to use my skills in service to the Lord and actively contribute to His mission.
