Hello Friends!

Big changes are afoot in my world - after enriching years on the islands, I've returned to the city lights of Vancouver. This move marks a new chapter, one fueled by a passion for exploring how technology and creativity intersect to shape our collective future.

I want you alongside me on this journey of rebirth and revolution. My independent voice allows me to delve into rebellious concepts and alternative lifestyles without restraint.

SCROLL DOWN: You'll find links below to new podcasts, blogs, and videos where I discuss empowering artists/creators through tech and finding our unique voices.

One post outlines exactly why I'm on this mission - check it out to fully understand my vision. I also want to shine light on what YOU are doing, so please share your latest projects or launches. Let's lift each other up!

As a photographer, I rely on events to sustain my art and livelihood. This fall I'll be at Future in Review, Dent the Future, HackCT and more - so if you hear of relevant gigs, especially community-focused ones, I'd be grateful if you passed them my way.

The journey is just beginning. Let's reconnect in Vancouver, talk shop on my Discord server, and build bridges between art, tech, and human connection. The future is unwritten, and we get to write it together.

• Dent the Future: September 10-13, Dent the Future is an invite-only community and annual conference for people who feel compelled to make a difference. · Sept 10–13, 2023 in Santa Fe, NM
