Good news

After being offered the excellent job as Chief Vicious Kitten Officer, I have declined her offer - and have taken a new professional job beginning mid-July. Actually I had two excellent offers (in addition to Vicious Kitten's offer!) to work for 2 phenomenal organizations - and it was a really hard decision...and the past few weeks have been filled with a lot of emails, phone calls, and big decisions...but a few days ago, from the streets of London, I accepted a job with the American Jewish World Service (AJWS) as the Senior Development Officer working to build a young leadership program. AJWS is an organization dear to my heart, it's the organization I worked with while I was in grad school and led service programs to Latin America. Check them out on the web: www.ajws.org

I think it will be a really good fit, full of lots of challenges and excitement. This is wonderful because it means we can truly enjoy our trip and last few weeks abroad, knowing that I am coming home to a job that I'm excited about - just wanted to share the good news. More from the continent (i.e. mainlaind Europe where I really hope the sun is shining since we haven't seen it in a week!)
