Reminiscing: Iraq in Fall 2014
I went to Iraq in late September 2014 and I never posted my blog notes about it. It was a low point for me as a humanitarian because I didn't feel confident at all being there, but I know I'm probably not alone among my colleagues.
A student of mine recently asked about potentially taking an internship in Iraq. I gave her my opinion based on my personal experience. Then I realized that I had written a pretty much done blog post about my Iraq trip which I never posted ā mostly because that trip always felt like a low point in my humanitarian career. I was afraid of posting it because of not only me curating my personalā¦

Why Iām not changing my profileĀ photo
7/5/16 Some thoughts on perspective and solidarity⦠Iāve been on Facebook WAY too much in the last couple of months. Itās a self-perpetuating loop, where I post links mostly to whatever Iām reading, which is generally work-related, or just channeling whatever my little bubble is angry about. Today I was annoyed with the Scottish actress who wrote a stupid book about her gap-year in Zambia. Once Iā¦
