Documentary photographer. He started working as a photographer for a Kenyan daily newspaper in Nairobi, Kenya, when he was enrolled in a master program of Journalism School in the States. After some internship in New York, he moved to Ivory Coast and worked as a freelance photographer in West Africa. Since 2002 he has been focusing on documentary photography projects. Since 2004, he has been based in Barcelona. With his own personal visions and perspective, he deals with social issues including that mainstream media do not talk about.
