Welcome!

My name is Aaron. I am a graduate student at the University of Pennsylvania, in the International Educational Development Program (IEDP). From the first week of June, 2016 through mid-August I will be working with different organizations on disability inclusion and social-emotional learning in Jamaica.

Above, you will see a navigation bar where you can find the following information:

  • Jamaica
    • Internship – Regularly updated posts specifically about the work I’m doing in Jamaica.
    • Today I Learned – This page will be updated once a day-ish with a new fact or story about Jamaica.
  • Higher Ed Links – These provide direct links to Penn’s Graduate School of Education, the IEDP homepage, and my undergraduate Alma mater, South Dakota State University. Go Jackrabbits!
  • Thoughts – This page will include original posts, pictures, and videos. Anything that piques my interest…and my thoughts about it.
  • Contact – If you would like to send me a message, please do so! I would be happy to respond, and your question may make it on the Thoughts page.
