I am an Anglo-Catalan photographer, at present living in Barcelona. My main focus is on Human Rights issues within urban environments, which I combine with portraiture and teaching. My work includes comissions from Médicos del Mundo España, Fundación San Juan de Déu, Fundación Formació i Treball, and SOS Racisme, amongst others.

I am often involved in cultural and educational photography-based projects, and I currently coordinate the second edition of  'Miradas con Voz', the participatory photography contest hosted by Médicos del Mundo Cataluña. I also design and teach participatory photography workshops with at-risk comunities, as well as teaching at DateCuenta, a local photography school.

 During my continuous contact with at-risk communities, I meet extraordinary people and discover stories that I feel need to be known. In this way, I have developed a body of work that stems from close contact with communities in challenging and vulnerable situations. Recent exhibitions of these stories include Mitgeres, Photón Photo Festival, Ciclo de fotografía documental Joan Gomis, and BCN Misfits. Editorial work includes ‘Barcelona Photos Prohibidas’, as well as commissioned portraits for publishers.
