At the moment I am a freelancing art director/creative. I do this to earn money that I spent during my latest (one year) trip. I was in Korea for a couple of months for the soul purpose of meeting people and capturing them. This guy is a Korean upcoming artist with a passion for architecture. Despite the language barrier we managed to make a document in which I told his story in a way he wanted it to be told. I am totally passionate sharing stories. Right now I am editing my self-initiated, non-funded documentary about Tibetan refugees in Northern India of about 30 minutes. I took care of everything from talking with officials, taking care of permits and interviewing/filming. Unfortunately the request to live in an Indian slum and document their lives came too late and was impossible to combine with the refugee project. If it was, I would have done it in a heartbeat. I know I still have a lot to learn and there is no better school then this opportunity.
I would give up everything to combine my two biggest passions in life; traveling and telling stories through the lens.
