CENTRO’s On Both Sides of the Lens
FeatureDocumenting the Puerto Rican Diaspora
Inspired by the legacy of Frank Espada, Hiram Maristany, Sophie Rivera, Charles Biasiny-Rivera, Roger Cabán, Felipe Dante, and many more, CENTRO had the goal of having a visual record that communicated the last five years of the Puerto Rican diasporic experience. Through an open call, the work of 33 photographers was selected for this first iteration of On Both Sides of the Lens: Documenting the Puerto Rican Diaspora.

Experience Camps
PersonalExperience Camps is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing solace, support, and fun to children who have experienced the death of a parent, sibling, or caregiver through a series of one-week grief camps nationwide. I spent a week at their Pennsylvania location, where I witnessed the staff's dedication and the campers' strength. In juxtaposing sorrow and elation, I sought to reveal the nuanced beauty that arises from the journey of healing.
