On paper, I’m not a bad catch. I’ve got my bachelor and masters degrees from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism. (Go ‘Cats!) I’ve never been convicted of a felony. And I speak Korean, French, and Swahili. (Ahn young! Bonjour! Jambo!) So when I got a scholarship covering all my expenses to live in Africa for a year, I quit my job at PBS and boarded a plane to Nairobi. “I’ll find another job when I get back. No big deal.”
Well, I was wrong. Really fucking wrong. The financial shitstorm went into Category 5 while I was hammock napping in Zanzibar and hookah smoking in Mombasa. Now I’m back in Chicago and looking for work. With the economy as volatile as MJ’s bloodstream, job hunting is riddled with — to put it euphemistically — “adventures.” And some may say it’s worth blogging about.

I’ve known Jinna since middle school, she’s pretty much the most well-rounded person I know, you should hire her or read her blog or just seek her out and be her friend (if you live in Chicago).
