I started writing this blog as a way of documenting my path in the industry. To my surprise, it soon became a tool for starting creatives to find resources about their careers. I'm humbled by the constant flow of positive feedback and I'm really grateful that you took the time to stop by. Please, now that you are here, do introduce yourself. I want to get to know you.
When I'm writing these posts, I think of you. I write for you, so the more I know you the more I can keep on writing the posts that you enjoy reading. There is a special bond between the writer and the reader. For a few minutes, words have the power to connect us transcending time and space. In my mind, and for the length of these posts, it is as if we were sitting across from each other having a chat.
It doesn't really matter if we agree or disagree. What's important is that we were given the opportunity to find each other in the depths of the internet. Out of the 8 billion people that inhabit the planet, you and I connected through this blog and to me that is worth every single second that I've spent writing on it.

If, on the other hand, you just found out about this blog through this post, I say: welcome. Sit down, relax, grab something warm to drink and enjoy the reading. If you don't know where to start, below you will find a summary of the topics that I write about to make your life easier:
Posts for the creative community where I write about my experiences working in the Creative Industries in the UK.
Opinion pieces where I write about the social issues that I care for, such as Human Rights and Mental Health.
I Wish I Had Known: a column where I interview other creatives and ask them questions about the things that I wish I had known when I started out as a creative myself. We talk about their careers, their roles in the industry and how they started out.
A World That Others Can't See: a column in which I ask fellow photographers to talk about an image from their portfolios in order to discover the stories behind their work and to learn about the person behind the lens.
