Moving to Nairobi, Kenya

I was recently offered a multimedia position with Mobius Motors, a start-up car company focussed on helping develop Africa. Read more about them here: www.mobiusmotors.com

We fly out on the 15th of Aprila and we'll be there for 2 years, maybe longer.

I've loved working for the University of Portland over the past 2 1/2 years but we felt it was time to go on a walkabout again and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to be part of a project that I think has so much potential to improve the lives of Africans in a real, immediate and concrete way...that's not "aid". 

Shooting in Guatemala


My wife and I were invited to document the work of a surgical team from Portland that does life changing medical work in a hospital in Antigua, Guatemala. Surgery after surgery for a week. First time using instagram to instantly document and upload what's happening at the hospital, in the OR and what life is like around town. Check it out here: http://instagram.com/teamstempel

We also took some photos with our bigger cameras as well...and I shot video as well for a future short video feature. It was a great experience with a wonderful team of nurses, doctors and support staff!

If you're wondering, no we didn't pass out in the operating room.  ;-)
