I like weird people and weird people like me. I am a multi-platform reporter with a passion for visuals. I came into journalism through photography, where I am well versed in breaking news, long-term features, portraiture and pretty much everything in between. Starting in 2013 I began translating that experience into videos; both documentary style longer pieces and short, punchy, social media-friendly vignettes. Oh, and I write. I cover a little bit of everything and have an affinity for characters who seem a bit too weird to be real. Alternatively and more "seriously," I have a strong interest in global urban development, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. I've worked in cities around the world, as a videographer, photographer and writer (and sometimes all three) for publications ranging from The Guardian to MSNBC to Al Jazeera America. I've shot photographs for AP, AFP and Reuters, and worked independently in Nigeria, South Africa, Zimbabwe and others.
