Debate

I have been debating since high school. Since then I've won multiple championships, co-authored a book on debating, and trained hundreds of students.

Travel

I can’t really dress up “I love to travel” in a poetic way—but I do. I love noticing how different places shape people’s lives: their routines, their culture, and the landscapes around them.

Photography

Sometimes I turn into a visual storyteller. These days, most of my photography comes from travel and fieldwork, but I worked as an event photographer until 2017.
