Liberty Hill Foundation

Commissioned by Liberty Hill Foundation to document a three-day gathering of its Environmental Leadership Initiative (ELI) Fellowship at the Agua Caliente Cultural Museum in Palm Springs, California.

Rooted in environmental justice, ELI brings together community leaders advancing grassroots power-building, Indigenous land stewardship, and collective liberation. The gathering emphasized shared learning, solidarity, and relationships across communities.

My photographic approach centered the people and relationships that give these gatherings meaning: capturing moments of dialogue, reflection, joy, and collective connection.
