I am a registered midwife but am not currently practicing. My work with MSF was brief but intense. In 2003, I went to both Afghanistan and Sierra Leone. In Kandahar, I worked on a safe motherhood initiative in a camp for internally displaced people but ended up spending time in two other provinces owing to instability. I then went on to Makeni, Sierra Leone, to work in a maternity ward providing clinical care to women and newborns and training for Ministry of Health staff. Currently, I am now pursuing a Masters degree in Health Research Methodology.
