I am a PhD student in anthropology and a proud transgender woman (going by the name Miriam in my daily life). My main purpose in life is to gain wisdom and insight and to make a difference to others.
I have seen and experienced a lot and travelled extensively, and in the course of my life I have worked closely with people from very different backgrounds. I have acquired the ability to explain complex concepts in a simple way, I consider my mediation skills to be very good, and I understand what people mean even when they are being unclear.
