“A lot of my work happens pretty quietly. I’m usually working with a small number of people, and a lot of the work I make never gets seen by many folks.

That’s part of why I’m excited about The Fifty! It feels like a chance to step outside of that and be part of a bigger creative community through VSCO.”
