I am a photographer, retoucher, travel enthusiast and biotechnologist, currently based in Wroclaw, Poland.
But it was biotechnology that allowed me to travel around the world; research job taught me to observe, analyze and synthesize experiences from my travels. These skills are fundamental tools in photojournalism and documentary photography, two genres of photography that I love particularly.
