Peace Corps
Jul 2014 - Aug 2016Community Health EducatorIn my primary role as a Community Health Educator, I performed health education sessions and home visits, in Khmer, to improve maternal health, nutrition, and hygiene. These conversations, coupled with community needs assessments, led to the design and implementation of two USAID funded grants: a sustainable home garden project and the renovation and expansion of latrine facilities at the local High School. Alongside community counterparts I designed and co-facilitated monthly youth development workshops for high school students and teachers focused on: sexual and reproductive health, gender identity, gender equality, human rights, career planning, and project design. In addition to local workshops, I also planned and oversaw three provincial wide youth leadership camps to train and develop the next generation on gender equality, health, and community engagement.

During my time at CNCS I also became certified as a Level I Contracting Officer Representative (COR) which gave me deeper insight into the procurement process. Show less
