Ever wonder about what to do after graduation?

"When Jacqueline Kannan graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill several years ago with a degree in mass communications, she had no concrete life plan."

"Now, the 27-year-old knows where she is headed next, thanks to a global perspective and the chance to make a difference in the lives of others that has turned into a career."

Using her skills in marketing?

"While the conditions were seemingly primitive -- undrinkable water and sanitation among them -- there were also trade-offs from what she was used to in America.

Moved up in the world? She must've lived in Hinton James.
