Bio:
Marion has an innate love of Africa! She was born and raised in Zimbabwe, studied at University of Cape Town, worked in the industrial heartland of South Africa, and has had many hilarious and enviable travel adventures in southern and eastern Africa. So now she is thrilled to be volunteering in Tanzania as a Kiva Fellow on sabbatical from her engineering career in Alberta, Canada. Marion looks forward to combining her background in technology and process optimization with her passion for travel and her social conscience. She's eager to see the power of microfinance and social business in action!
