For over 10 years, I have led the Recovery in The Arts project, an initiative by Fresh Start of Miami-Dade to engage people that receive Behavioral Health Services in creative workshops aimed to increase wellness, self-help and empowerment.
I developed a creative workshop with the purpose of using photography as a tool for observation, mindfulness, healing and recovery. I guide participants through a series of exercises that help them learn the basics while helping them to connect with their environments through observing and looking at things with curiosity.
