Beatrice Murch’s Summary
I have put my administrative hat back on by co-founding a computer consulting company with my husband. I am wading through the bureaucratic processes here in Argentina. Con-currently, I am following my passion for photography and have just started a photography internship with Argentimes.
In my "previous life" in the USA, I was a non-profit administrator focused on keeping the chaos down to a minimum by organizing the office and making sure things run smoothly. Used to wearing multiple hats as necessary and getting the job done.
