Interview with Upstream Daily at the Social Enterprise World Forum in Ōtautahi Christchurch, Aotearoa New Zealand (2017)
United Indians of All Tribes Foundation During the first couple months of my relocation to Seattle, Columbus Day was renamed Indigenous Peoples' Day to recognize Native American culture and to commemorate the history of natives and indigenous peoples worldwide. A gathering of well over 200 people representing dozens of tribes from as far north as Alaska and as far south as Central America at the Daybreak Star Cultural Center will remain one of the most powerful moments I have witnessed. The showcase of camaraderie, unity, support, and the music, drumming, and chanting on top of the amazing salmon dinner were absolutely incredible. The photos that I captured that evening are shown on their website.
National Geographic Go Blue In 2011 I had the opportunity to work with La Red de Mentoras Panamá, and was invited out to the Bocas del Toro region to document the work that the indigenous Ngöbe (Ngäbe) people are doing - setting up an eco-tourism business along with the mentorship of a Peace Corps. The photos promoted conscious tourism that conserve local culture and ecosystems.

Grist.org - Beacon Food Forest Between late 2014 to early 2016 I was actively involved with the Beacon Food Forest project in Seattle, Washington state. Beyond the sheer nature beauty of the surrounding region with its year-round flowing streams, glaciated mountain peaks, and thick evergreen forests, this urban garden with a grand vision kept me happily in the city.
In 2012, I hosted an exhibit featuring my photographs from Panama in the historic part of Panama City, which the local newspaper La Prensa Panama covered.
