About

My name is Molly, I'm American from upstate New York. I lived in Mali for one year as a teacher, teaching American Studies, Translation, and Conversation English at the University of Bamako FLASH. During university strikes, I worked with USAID/PHARE on their curriculum development project in Bamako. I also taught at a university in Guinea for a year. I loved the colorful chaos and friendly culture in Bamako, as well as the exciting night life. You can't help but feel alive in that city. I am very interested in the field of international development and am seeking employment in Bamako. I have a Bachelor's degree as well as a degree from a French university. I am fluent in French and have a decent working knowledge of Bambara and would really like to learn Arabic.
Interests: cooking, animals, sports, , art, creative writing, fashion, music, french literature
