“I’m committed to stories of social cohesion, the resilience of the human spirit and environmental awareness. I love art, music and surfing. I do social documentary work for various foundations, NGOs and corporate clients. I have always been fascinated by the informal economy and the industrious characters eking out a living on forgotten edges of the sidewalk.”
