Brief Profile:
Now that the application madness is over, I wanted to create this as a service for future applicants, as I looked at a number of profiles to help put my school list together.
Non-trad (4 years out of college) with strong ECs, unconventional major, and several years working in education, social justice and international health. Did the application process from rural Africa, which presented unique challenges. Was able to group interviews together into a month period around christmas, and made a return trip for those and to see family.
