“When Angkorian society began, Paris and London were not much more than elaborate villages. Europe was crawling with barbarians, and here were the Khmer engineering sophisticated irrigation systems and constructing the biggest temple in the world.”
― Kim Fay, The Map of Lost Memories

HELLO

  This will be my first Habitat for Humanity trip as a team leader.  I have participated in three previous Habitat builds two in Cambodia and one in Vietnam over the previous three years. Since 2006 I have participated in over 10 medical mission trips to both Cambodia and Vietnam working with an organization called Vets With a Mission (vwam.org) .

  I live in northern Maine with my wife Connie and work as a Pharmacist at a medical center nearby.

  I look forward to meeting and working with all of you and experiencing the beauty of this fascinating country and the warmth of its people.
