Everyone has a story to tell. Our stories are written from the reservoirs of our personal histories; they weave the fabric of our humanness. When we share our authentic stories in community, we build connection and a sense of belonging. Since 2010 I have been collaborating with academic communities making portraits and inviting people to share aspects of their personal narratives with pen and ink on their portraits. Selections of their stories follow. I have photographed nearly 300 people from the following communities:
Washington State University
Swarthmore College
Rhode Island School of Design
Gordon School
Georgia Tech
Babson College
