Bio:
Originally from California, Cameron had the opportunity to live and play soccer in Brazil and Bolivia as a teenager. Upon returning to the US Cameron attended Santa Clara University, graduating in 2005 with a B.S. in Economics focusing on poverty and development. Since then he has bounced around the private sector holding positions at Google, a couple of start-ups and is currently working on a new venture, GABBA, with friends in Brazil and Europe. Cameron is looking forward to furthering Kiva's mission in working with Hluvuku-Adsema and intends on continuing to pursue issues of development both academically and professionally. Cameron speaks Spanish and Portuguese and hopes to pick up on some of the many indigenously spoken languages in Mozambique.
