Eddy has worked with CHI as an interpreter for the past three years. He learned English from watching Youtube videos and from Danger, CHI's Haiti Operations Director, who has been his teacher since the seventh grade.

He says that he really enjoys working with CHI because the work has a real impact on the community and working with CHI allows him to support his family. People are truly thankful for his work and that of the rest of the team. He feels that he has been a part of addressing major problems in Haiti’s healthcare system.

In the future, Eddy wants to work as a professional translator and run his own school where he teaches English to students.
