Bio:
Bryan recently graduated from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo where he obtained a B.A. in Business with concentrations in Accounting and International Management and a minor in Spanish. From 2004-2005, he lived, studied and volunteered at a local marine biology station in Puntarenas, Costa Rica. After returning to the U.S., he completed a sales internship with NBC in his hometown of San Diego. Since graduating, he has traveled extensively through Central and South America, and touched down in Europe and North Africa. Bryan brings a background in accounting having worked as an audit associate for KPMG LLP, where he developed an interest in microcredit. Desiring to combine his passion for travel with his background education and an inherent urge to help others, he accepted one of Kiva's first roaming borrower verification fellowships. In his travels around Peru, he hopes to pick a few words of Quechua, play soccer with locals and try to squeeze in a surf in the North.
