As a photographer and researcher, I will bring my skills and knowledge in photojournalism and anthropology to create compelling visual stories that communicate the realities and perspectives of diverse communities and cultures in Canada. I have been collaborating with local and international NGOs, consultancy firms, and media outlets on various projects related to social, environmental, and political issues. My passion for photography stems from my belief that it is a powerful tool to raise awareness, inspire action, and foster dialogue. My goal is to continue using my lens and my voice to document and share the stories that matter.
