1. Tell us some basic information about yourself, such as your name, when you worked at the Ford Foundation, and what your role was.

My official Ford Foundation photo from about 2015, when I was the global human rights program officer, standing on the shoulder of giants before me.

2. Tell us a memory about working at the Ford Foundation. Why is this memory important or meaningful to you? When possible, mention names, places, years, etc.

1990s .. a mediocre picture .. more or less what I looked like as a program associate in the Santiago office

3. Tell us about something you learned while working at the Ford Foundation and, if relevant, from whom.

Playing backgammon with Pepe Zalaquett (2018), who taught me so much about human right. He was too at chess for us to really play! With backgammon at least I won (with luck) at least 10% of the time!

4. Tell us about a person you met while you were working at the Ford Foundation who left an impression on you.
