I am Peter Constantian, a Peace Corps Food and Nutrition Security volunteer fluent in Spanish with grants and contracting experience and strong cross-cultural communication skills.

Peace Corps service has given me two years of experience educating young adults on the importance of proper nutrition as well as hosting capacity building training sessions in gardening to help families become more food secure.

Furthermore, my experience with contract and grant management both in the Peace Corps and as a Contract Specialist at Medicare have proven of my organizational and writing skills, and my command of the principles of data collection, analysis, finance and accounting.

I received a Bachelors Degree from St. Olaf College in May 2010 with a double major in Economic and Religion and a concentration in Middle East Studies.

I am currently seeking employment in the Boston metro area and would love to join a business or organization whose mission targets public health, international development, food, agriculture, or nutrition.
