My Scholarship entry - Trip up the Ucayali river in Peru

Peru | Thursday, November 13, 2014 | 5 photos

I am a senior at Barry University BFA in photography program. I am a 21 year veteran of the U.S. Coast Guard that decided to go to school after retirement to pursue my passion for photography. Through photograpy I can interact with the world in a therapeutic way to overcome anxiety. I am fluent in Spanish and I have been to Peru this past Summer with my church in a ministry mission to the village of Galilea. I love to make images that bring the realities of life from different cultures and highlight the harmony with nature and the environment. Since I am retired, my goal is to do photography for charitable organizations that would benefit from professional photography to bring awareness to their cause.
