Linda Wheatley

Linda most recently directed leadership programs at the Snelling Center for Government in Burlington Vermont. Previously, she served as Associate Director for Peace Corps/Thailand, responsible for the country's health projects and the volunteers involved in them. In 2004, Linda launched Montpelier to Thailand, a program that engages, annually, a group of teenagers in a year of activities that prepare them for a village home-stay in Northeast Thailand. Observing the power of these experiences, for all involved, she launched Sweet Mango Tours, a small company offering meaningful travel and service opportunities in Southeast Asia. She lives with her two children in both central Vermont and in northeast Thailand.
