    employing environmental and socioeconomic data collection methods, and the analysis
    and synthesis of secondary information sources

    • Solid theoretical and applied training in environmental and biological sciences, and

    ecosystem governance and management

    • Extensive creative skills in written, visual and oral communication that integrates

    scientific and artistic disciplines through different media.

    After Eden
    Poetry by Jeneen Garcia | February 10, 2008
    They both bear the burden of the fruit.
    Each day they toil in this marketplace
    steaming in the morning heat, here
    where there are too many ways to know
    good and evil, life and death.

    His strong back strains under the heavy basket,


    her arms keep steady as she eases the weight.
    It does not matter now whose wrong it was,
    why each drop of sweetness comes from pain.
    Grace still fills the smallest gestures of being.

    At twilight, she boils the rice as carefully


    as she draws her child close—tender, fierce—
    the way her hands were shaped, the way
    her breath warms his skin at night as she sleeps,
    the only way her heart knows, has always known.
