VOLUNTEER EXPERIENCE
In the last two years I have represented two Christian ministries on a volunteer basis, as a spokesman and a teacher. These responsibilities have involved multiple speaking engagements, attendance at conferences and conventions as an exhibitor and workshop spokesman, and trips to S.E. Asia, particularly Cambodia, to teach. Last year, I also recruited teachers and established training sites, expanding the number of sites from two to four.
