I am a Brooklyn-based independently contracted photographer and writer with interests in the intersection of human society and the environment. My photographs and written work have appeared most recently in Photojournalism Hub, GoNOMAD Travel Magazine, Wanderlust Travel Magazine and Corbeaux Magazine. A curated selection of my photos appear in the Smithsonian Magazine public archive. I hold a Masters in urban planning and education. I am a former United Nations employee currently serving the New York City Department of Education as a tenured educator for the blind and visually impaired, and I am a Library of Congress certified Braille transcriber.
