My name is Jaime. I left for Peace Corps training on 31 August 2009 to Nicaragua. Here, I will provide training to English Teachers to formulate relevant language-acquisition curricula for 27 months.
I graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles with a B.A. in English World Literature and an accompanying Minor in French and Francophone Studies. After my service in the Peace Corps, I hope enter Aarhus Universitet's Cognitive Semiotics Elite Graduate Program (also contemplating programs at the Universities of Helsinki or Vaasa), and soon afterward hope to obtain the Second-year Master Degree in International Cooperation, Humanitarian Action, and Politics of Development (CIAH-PD) at the Université Paris-1 (Sorbonne).
I hope to use my knowledge and experience in Education and International Relations & Development in the U.S. Foreign Service, non-profit (NFPs) or non-governmental organizations (NGOs), or other national and international public service or humanitarian organizations.
Born in Mexico, immigrated as a child to the United States, I understand the importance of good relations between peoples and nations, as well as the respect of human life and the dignity of every person. Positive international relationships are key to cooperation and social, political, and economic stability around the world, not only between developed nations, but between all nations. It is my hope to be a part of these continuing efforts.

Who I'd like to meet: This may sound a little exclusive, but I'm going to have to make some disclaimers about people that I add:
(a)I must have already met you, and you are already (or will become) my friend.
However, there are a few exceptions:
If (a) is false, then:
(b) You must have written a worthy comment or message prior to my adding you.
and/or
(c) I must have read, seen, or heard some of your work and have become intrigued by it.
Hey whatsup buddy, I got your message. The Peace Corp huh? That is pretty cool man! Happy late birthday too, you are 25 I believe. It is great to hear from you, and God bless you.
Really? What'd I write? I keep on trying to send you the SM videos, but your email is rejecting them. Have fun in Mexico! I've been trying to hide away to get my work done and take care of stuff.
