Protests and Rallies

About

Hailing from Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, traveled to London, Italy, Singapore and China. Guided Free School students in traditional and eventually digital photography at the Elm St. community darkroom, perhaps dispel some cultural myths and help them through the tough years as teenagers growing up in the 21st century. Recently returned from Hainan Island, in the South China Sea where I learned about the Hainanese people, my ancestors. Currently pursing art therapy as a graduate degree and photojournalism as a past-time; to use art for healing, to encourage spiritual growth and make positive change in our communities.
