Journalism
I’ve spent my entire career chasing the story. I have embedded into communities as a journalist, ridden night buses to ancient Asian cities, slept with crocodiles, hiked the same trails as Che Guevara, and listened to neighbors, business owners, chefs, students and seniors share their trials and joys. Through this pursuit, I’ve learned that the listening part is the most important, the best way to effect change is through empathy, and visuals can be the most powerful medium for storytelling.
New Body, New Life.
Mark Celi thought his life was over when he was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease at age 52. He couldn't work, couldn't use his body the same way and fell into a depression. Then he found a boxing class at The Centers at St. Camillus for people just like him, and he punched his way back into his life.
