With Love From Pily on 4/20/2010

Pily: Syracuse, NY, United States; I was a Water Sanitation Volunteer with the Peace Corps in Mali. My village had no running water, electricity, or roads. I spent my time trying to change habits ingrained over generations, installing latrines, and repairing wells. And chatting and drinking hot sweet tea under a mango tree, of course. I was deliciously happy.

I went to SUNY ESF for my BS in Environmental Resources Engineering

I grew up in Ulster County, NY

I worked for three years for CDH Energy Corp. as a Project Engineer, finding things out about the efficiency (or lack thereof) of building energy systems (heat, power, cooling, etc.).

I am exploring spirituality and faith at May Memorial Unitarian Universalist Society and I am exploring new career options as a Substitute Teaching Assistant for SCSD while I go to Community College for Early Child Care.

I'm not a cyclist, but I'm a big fan of bikes (and my partner is a cyclist).
