About me:
In 2002, I went on my first CCS program to Ghana with my older sister and ever since then I've been interested in African History. Since graduating from college as a History major, I've been working with Cross-Cultural Solutions, and I've had the privilege to work with the programs in Costa Rica and South Africa. As of now, 3 out of my 4 sisters have also done CCS programs...and hopefully soon my whole family will have experienced a program.

Hello Stephen,
Sorry I have not checked the system for a while.
Wow, I remember all the days of Woe.
It's sad that it had to be closed down.
The memories will be with me for a long time to come.
When I went back to Ghana in May '06, I drove by the (then) house.
I currently live in a suburb of Minneapolis and working as an application developer (computer programming).
How is Christy?
I will be in touch.
