Global Team
In one way or another, I’ve worked with Christian Science organizations (CSO) for a total of about 5 and a half years—not including the time I spent in my own CSO at the University of Maryland in College Park ( Go Terps!). For the last year and a half, I’ve been working with the CSO Support team at TMC Youth. It is a creative environment where I get to work with really interesting and highly motivated people. I love it!
