Hello! My name is Gerald Brady and I am originally from Wilmington, Delaware. I grew up in a family of teachers so a love of education was instilled in me from an early age. I lived my whole life in Delaware, even staying at the University of Delaware for college. I taught high school Social Studies for a year before I decided to join the Peace Corps.
The Peace Corps is a perfect opportunity for me to combine my passion for education with my desire to have an impact on the world. I love to travel and I have been to several countries in Europe as well as States all over the US. My journeys have taught me the importance of global citizenship and that we have a responsibility to be committed to each others' well-being regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, and more.
I hope that the highlights of my journeys and the challenges that I face can be informative to others. As an educator, I understand how important it is to learn from the experiences of others, and as someone who has traveled a lot, I know how important it is to learn about the world outside of your home. I look forward to having more people along this journey with me!
