Biography:

For the last 7 years I have been studying various forms of art and art 
history at university in New Zealand.
 
I chose to come to Vietnam - with photography as my focus - in order to 
explore the rich landscapes and investigate cultural diversity, as well as 
the ever increasing differential between the old and the new.
 
Living in Vietnam has been challenging at times due to language barriers and 
cultural differences, but I have found it to be a beautiful country with 
equally beautiful people.  Photographing the children at 15 May School was 
an opportunity to show this to a wider audience because, although these 
children have little in life, their smiles are endless and they have such 
strength in their character.
