One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve documented Venezuelan townships during the height of its economic crisis.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a bachelors degree in marketing and partly finishing MBA in Barcelona. I have a TEFL degree (teaching english as a foreign language) and a massage therapist degree.
