American Photography 35 Chosen Winner

I am extremely excited to announce that my portrait of Silivene photographed in Rwanda was chosen as a winner of American Photography 35 and will be included in the American Photography Archive. It has been my mission to continue telling the stories of women in Rwanda using basketball to improve their lives along side Shooting Touch and I am so grateful that this image will live in the American Photography Archive forever.

Part of an ongoing project documenting the recent interest in basketball throughout Rwanda. Shot in partnership with Shooting Touch, an international sport-for-development organization that uses the power of sport to educate and empower at-risk youth, women and their communities to live healthier lives.
