I'm a US-born, Italian-raised writer and photographer. When the Covid-19 pandemic hit its stride, I was wrapping up a trip around the globe, and wound up unable to get home. I opted for Bangkok over being trapped in the US, for purely practical, immediate reasons. Within months, a pro-democracy uprising kicked off and I began documenting it; reading Thai history, learning the language, and ultimately making the decision to stay.
I now shoot for human rights groups in the region and write periodically for outlets around the world.
