Trained as a civil engineer, I arrived in the US in my 20s to pursue graduate study and built a career at the World Bank, spending much of the last twenty years traveling to remote corners of the globe providing advice, and more recently teaching graduate students - on how to deliver essential services (water, sanitation, electricity, roads, public transport) to underdeveloped communities in low-income countries.

I moved to Korea (from California) about 10 years ago for a job as a professor. I loved that job: getting to work WITH bright young minds, getting to be in the classroom to teach and learn from them, and the incredible paid time off I had to travel the globe during winter and summer vacations. 4 years into my job as a professor, I got an unexpected invitation to speak in Austria.
