I have worked as a civilian contactor in Iraq under LOGCAP III in support of military operations since 2007. I have had the opportunity to travel to multiple countries in which I have observed and experienced a wide range of cultural diversity which has truly given me respect and understanding of different cultures and how to be confortable in any enviroment. In addition to my time in Chile, I also spent 3 weeks traveling throughout Spain, and I lived in Panama for 2 months. I have traveled to the Philippines on 3 seperate trips for a total of six weeks. I have traveled in and out of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates approximately 8 times. As a student of lingustics and culture I am knowledgable about many different languages but come short of saying I'm multi-lingual because I believe to use this term expresses the ability to speak other languages as well as one's native language. I speak, read, and write spanish extremely well but would like the opportunity to perfect my language skills while offering my experience in a professional setting.
