Tiffany in five sentences…

Tiffany prefers to spend her days globetrotting and living out of a backpack. She is deeply intrigued, frustrated, and inspired by international development work, especially in food security, education policy, and citizen agency issues.

She aims to write posts that will make her cringe in ten years on this blog.
