This is a most meaningful project that will use words, images and video to help girls focus on who they are, and to pull them away from the immediate gratification of self esteem through Social Media. My experience as an educator, my work studying affluenza and its impact on adolescents, and my compassion for girls who seem to have lost a piece of themselves will help me use my gifts as a portrait photographer to inspire and motivate girls, who will create a tangible piece of art that includes words and photographs to remind herself of who she is when she turns away from social media to tune in to herself. This is a dream come true, it comes straight from my heart, and is the ultimate culmination of my life's passions and gifts.
