Since February 2021, I’ve been publishing a newsletter with a curation of reflections, global good news, original content (such as my podcast), and recommended gems. I’ve found this to be as good if not better of a medium as social media to engage and stay connected with my audience. 🙃

Below is an attempt at a list of clients & collaborators as well as publications of my work through the years.

That one time when I hosted an exhibit featuring photographs from throughout Panama in the historic part of Panama City, which the local newspaper La Prensa Panama picked up. Sep 2012.

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 of the country to document the work that the indigenous Ngöbe (Ngäbe) people on one of the islands are doing in setting up an eco-tourism business along with the mentorship of a Peace Corps. volunteer as well as a businesswoman from Panama City. The photos from our visit then became featured on Nat Geo's Go Blue Central America sub-site to promote conscious tourism that conserve local culture and ecosystems. (Article link)

 

United Indians of All Tribes Foundation - Indigenous Peoples' Day

During the first couple months of my relocation to Seattle, Columbus Day was renamed Indigenous Peoples' Day (and Coast Salish Day in the nearby Bellingham, WA) 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 (perhaps even South) 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 now shown on their website.  (Page link)

 

National Geographic España Viajes

Extremely humbled and thrilled to have had my image (bottom image) from Poás Volcano in Costa Rica be featured in the March 2014 issue of National Geographic in Spain. Above is the screenshot from their website. The editor sent me a physical copy, and the image in the magazine was printed on a 2-page spread. What joy to see it in print in Nat Geo! (Article link)

 
Grist.org feature on the Beacon Food Forest - Mar 2015

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. Many articles have come out about the permaculture-inspired food forest since it was simply an idea, but this one in particular is special to me because grist.org was one of the environmental (and satirical) news blogs I read regularly when I was attending university and getting involved with social and environmental issues.
