I began traveling to Haiti as a volunteer in 2007 and moved here in 2010 to launch an organization called GOALS. I don’t have internet on my phone, don’t work on projects late at night or on weekends, and almost always take a real lunch hour. Mostly this has to do with living in Haiti.

In the early weeks we learn that our product won’t stand up to the sanitation requirements of the industry and we’re presented with real engineering problems in design and materials, but these are problems we know how to solve. Million; not big, but interesting. Will it work?
