Descripción
I graduated from Emory University and started working in Finance in New York for 2.5 years, I then ventured off into the entrepreneurial world and I helped co-found a healthcare technology start up called Huli (www.hulilabs.com and www.hulihealth.com). I then started a non-profit documenting traditional foods around the world while volunteering on farms (therecipehunters.com). Then I completed an MBA and Master in International Studies At UPenn. I am now working as a Product Manager and digital nomad in Europe. I am blessed for the professional and personal experience/knowledge that I gained through my life. I seek to travel and help around the world by learning, volunteering and connecting with locals. I seek to truly get involved in every and all projects through workaway while trying to speak/learn the local language. I promise to bring my positive energy, spirit, and hard working ethics to each and every project!

I am a strong, highly energetic individual. I have experience in household manual labor, working outside, cooking, and in some construction. Most importantly I am a quick learner and very eager to help. I am also very good at using computers, all microsoft products, problem solving on computers, google analytics, google adwords, and social media management. I also am able to do financial reporting, business consulting, and accounting. I love playing sports, games, and mentoring children. I participated as a chaperone to 44 Italian Teenagers during the Camino de Santiago and it help me realize how much enjoyment I receive from helping not only adults but children too!! Please feel free to reach out for any help you may need!

Above all, my goal is to always provide value, positive energy, and insight while trying to help as many people as possible. I take an ownership approach with everything I do. I am an honest and loyal individual and expect the same from anyone I work with. I try to learn every single day and expose myself to as many opportunities as possible. I live by the mantra "if not now, then when?" I look forward to meeting and helping people throughout the world as I start this next chapter of my life.

(Organic farm in Sabina, Rome, ...)

Noi veramente ci sentiamo parte della famiglia. La esperienza di lavorando nel campo con le olive e tornare a casa per mangiare il cibo con i vostri prodotti è molto speciale. L'ora del cibo è una cosa che sempre unisce una famiglia. è un tempo dove condividiamo, racontiamo, e ridiamo! A casa vostra era sempre una cosa che lo abbiamo aspettato con… read more emozioni e ogni giorno la cena durava di più! Sempre ricordiamo la sera con Pompilio quando abbiamo finito con le olive sotto la luce e pioggia con sorrise. Sempre ricordiamo la faccia di Rosa quando scopriva i cioccolati che Leila li nascondeva e la sorrisa nera e gigante che aveva fatto mentre lo mangiava. Avete creato una vita positiva, pieno di belle cose e fuori della vita che i potenti vogliono. Sappiamo tutto che dicono gli altri quando si va in una direzione diversa ma secondo noi, avete scelto la unica direzione giusta. Siete una grande squadra e una che amiamo. Vi ringraziamo tanto per aprire le porte, le cuore e per condividere con noi. Grazie per ingrassarci non solo con il cibo ma anche con l'amore. Ci vediamo! Con Amore, Antonio e Leila @therecipehunters

We truly felt like part of the family. The experience of working in the olive fields and returning home to eat food produced mainly from your products is very special. Dinner time is something that always unites a family. It is a time where we share, we tell stories, and we laugh! At your house it was always some that we eagerly anticipated, each day dinner would last longer and longer! We will always remember the time when we were finishing the olive harvest at dusk using the light of the tractor while it was raining; we all had smiles on our faces! We will always remember Rosa’s face when she discovered the chocolates that Leila hid and soon after the black teeth she had eating the chocolates!! You have truly created a positive life full of beautiful things and outside of the standards that the powerful few would like us to live. We understand the critiques that others may give you of your lifestyle but to us you have chosen the only just way. You guys are a great team that we love. We thank you so much for opening your doors, your hearts and sharing everything with us. Thanks for not only making us full of good food but full of love too. We will see you again one day! With Love, Anthony and Leila @therecipehunters

If you really want to use the word "thank you", I am the one who must use it.

I want to start off with saying thank you. For two reasons it is forbidden to say thank you while staying with Don Gianni and most importantly because for Leila and I the experience volunteering changed our lives for the better. Don Gianni contacted us because of his interest in teaching the children and teenagers of the community that there are… read more others out there in the world outside of their small villages. Though Don Gianni is currently a priest in Castel del Piano he still cares deeply and is involved in his old parish in San Quirico d'Orcia. We accepted Don Gianni's request to participate as mentors to 40 teenagers in the Camino de Santiago along with a group of 20 international volunteers, and 3 women that helped cook. Knowing that we were going to dedicate constant time on a 10 day trip with teenagers, Don Gianni offered us an open invite to stay and enjoy Castel del Piano for a few weeks before or after the camino. We stayed two weeks before and we experienced the epitome of positive relationships in a small community in Italy. The community truly cares about you and the help you are providing. Don Gianni never ceases to thank you with his words and actions. He will do whatever it takes to fulfill your needs whether it's a road trip to see an interesting site, or in our case to help us with our website in search of traditional recipes. Once the community knew we were volunteers, Don Gianni had an itinerary of people and families we had to visit for dinner or lunch before we left. It was incredible, somewhat magical. However, the real magic occurred during the camino de Santiago. Every morning we woke up to Italian breakfast prepared by the ladies, then we read a meditation in which we sat in silence to reflect as Don Gianni called out the walking groups consisting of one volunteers with two new kids a day (I do believe Don Gianni might have purposely given me some of the trouble makers, but I made them do push ups to warn them out), we spent our time walking, sharing our lives, giving them advice, reflecting on the meditation, and have some deep conversations with teenagers who are at a critical and important point in their lives. In the end what I learned from the teenagers is more than I could teach them. I experienced the cliches of life but without thinking of them. Life is about enjoying the journey (the 120 km walk was more rewarding than arriving at the church), the little things (whether it's the small soccer ball or the cards you play with at a two hour lunch in a small field you find next to the street) about spending time with friends and emphasizing the need for it rather than saying its a waste of time, and it's knowing that you can always find comfort in mom's food (the mom's of the children prepared enough sauces and a variety of them for us to eat throughout all the lunches and dinners of the camino and YES they are Italian so there was a lot of pasta and it was delicious). Most importantly though, we witnessed first hand the incredible leadership, genuineness, and love of the most amazing priest we have ever met or heard of, Don Gianni. Don Gianni's ability to sense the feelings of others, relate to them, lead them, and give other his all is something that anyone in this world should learn from and we will be forever thankful to have met him and become friends with him. Once again Grazie Don Gianni

Anthony and Leila truly embody the workaway ethos -- they are heroically hard workers whose easy smiles and creative minds accentuate, rather than attenuate, the wide range of tasks which they set themselves and accomplished. It was only upon later reflection that I realised that it was this spirit of independence, under the aegis of their… read more

I can only say that I am so thankful for my experience and the time spent at this project. Ihsan does his best to create a positive envrionment and to try to cater towards everyone's needs. He balances the ever steady and unsteady supply of volunteers. He balances a lot at the farm and works everyday. If there are any concerns he immediately… read more coordinates with Ray who is more than empathetic when dealing with volunteers. We expected to come to a permaculture garden that still has aspirations to achieve above and beyond expectations in a country in which recycling, organic produce and permaculture is an almost forgotten practice. Just like any new garden, they have many projects that are all of importance and we were ready for that. We knew what to expect and we had a great time joining in on the community right away while getting our hands dirty. We tried our best to contribute to the lovely community that Ihsan and Ray created. Every week the volunteers agreed with each other who would cook what days, who would get off what days, and in general what each person would be working on. This helped create an environment and culture. Although there were one or two people that didn't fit in with the culture, they seemed to weed themselves out (no pun intended) by leaving on their own will. I was baffled to see how some people show up, expect to do no work, and just reap the benefits of the hard work of others. This put Ihsan in an uncomfortable situation but fortunately the other volunteers saw beyond these slackers to continue learning and contributing to the garden. At the end of the day we all had fun and although it was hard work, we are so fortunate to be able to work outside in an amazing Country. Since we all cooked for each other and spent time in the communal room, each day we were thoughtfully rewarded with great cooking, lots of laughs and occasional gatherings. We spent Thanksgiving at the garden and were given extra funds to buy the food we were accustomed to eating for the holiday. Talk about making us feel special :) I recommend this place to anyone who wants to work hard, wants to be self educated, wants to contribute to a positive environment, and wants to be part of a fun, loving and comfortable community. In regards to other comments about communication. Ihsan does speak great English and if you don't understand something he shows you exactly how it is done and he works with you until you can do it on your own. At the same time Ihsan also works hard each and everyday and is very appreciative for whatever work you do. He always has a smile on his face and is very excited to help you accomplish your tasks at the garden. I hope to return in the future as I know I will always have friends there!!!
