Audrey Wood

Audrey Wood is a Russia Program Associate at Pacific Environment.  Having caught the travel bug early, Audrey has lived all over the US, in Germany, and in Russia.  Of all the places she has set foot, none have managed to capture her heart quite like the dense forests of Siberia and the US Pacific Northwest.  Before joining Pacific Environment, Audrey studied at Saint Petersburg State University under the American Councils Russian Flagship Program.  At this time, she interned with the Saint Petersburg-based Center for Non-Profit Organization Development and also worked part-time as a freelance translator and English teacher.  Audrey also spent a year working as a translator/editor for the Language Link Translation Bureau in Moscow.  She received her B.A. in Political Science and a Certificate in Russian and East European Studies from the University of Pittsburgh. Audrey is fluent in Russian and has a good knowledge of German, and makes a mean vegetarian lasagna.  When not at work, she can be found biking around San Francisco or perfecting her taekwondo technique.
