  • About I’ve been working internationally on media, youth development and social justice issues since 1996, when I traveled on a reporting trip to Cuba as a youth journalist. Since then I’ve worked on media and research projects in Latin America, West Africa and Southeast Asia,and with migrant farm workers in the US. I’ve worked at Internews Network, AllAfrica.com and Y-Press. Through Digital Democracy I work with local partners to connect people through new technologies that encourage education, communication and participation.
