Over the last ten years I’ve found freedom as a documentary photographer, writer, and filmmaker. I travel where I wish, develop my own projects, and sell to mainstream media outlets – The New York Times, The Washington Post, NBC, BBC, PBS, and many more.
Now I've built Drombe to help you walk a similar path.
"Being able to take on learnings from self-directed to commercial works from Spike has made all the difference, and it reminds me that I'm not alone in walking this path. I'm thankful that I've found the Drombe community and have the support of mentors like Spike, who champions the work I do as a creator and change-maker."
