Viva el BLOG!!

Yes, it has been a ridiculous amount of time since my last post... nearly a year. Apparently graduate school has kept me busy! With no promises of future posting frequency, here are updates of the past year:

-In addition to the original MIAM dual degree I enrolled for, I am going to concurrently complete INCAE's full MBA program, resulting in a double dual degree. My MBA will specialize in finance & economics and sustainable development. Graduation for MIAM is December 2008. MBA graduation is May 2009.

-Commodities prices have skyrocketed... which is bad news for humanity BUT at least my interests are more relevant.

-My research from Mexico, 2006, has finally hit the press!!!!!

-During spring break I went to a place where mojitos are the drink of choice and Hemingway used to hang out.

-My brother has been in Europe since last winter. Follow his food blog.

-Chimichurri is my new favorite addition to grilling.

-While I can help you with a financial analysis or debate the causes/solutions of the global food and credit crisis, there is little, if anything, that I have time for these days because of school... Unless you catch me in CR for a weekend of salsa dancing, rum sampling, or grilling...

-Post-graduation plans are starting to form in the direction of environmental finance, carbon markets, and international trade. Anybody looking to hire???

-MICHIGAN: third week of august!
