Dear Change members, I've been wanting to get to one of your afternoon lunch sessions but I haven't been able to carve out the time. I'm currently an MCDM student in deferment with a strong (photo) journalism print background having worked for many global news magazines/organizations. I've been following the CHANGE emails over the last month and wondering if any of you would have a need--or know of a need--for my skills in Nairobi, Kenya, where I'm traveling the next three weeks. During this time I'll be on assignment photographing a Seattle medical NGO Nov. 5-21 while his team provides primary care for Somali refugees and the needy. I thought given your interests in the developing world there might be an opportunity to collaborate? I may be able to provide coverage--using words, pictures and video--of projects/topics you're currently researching? Much of my career has been spent in the third world. If any of you have any needs or ideas--contacts or topics--do let me know. I'd be happy to partner. You can get a full idea of my skills below. Thank you.
