Field Notes

Photographs, observations and questions I want to return to.

I’m making room here for shorter writing from places I visit and things I notice: a photograph, a detail in a landscape, a conversation that leaves me with a question. Some notes may lead to an article or inform a project. Others may stay as a record of a particular place and moment.

The first entries are still to come.

In the meantime

Sand Cartels

My article on illegal sand extraction in Southeast Asia and the people living along changing coastlines.

Housing Navigation

What I have learned from checking rental listings and requirements for refugee families in Long Beach.
