Editing a short film from Malawi. Raising funds for projects in Africa has never been more important. Probably one of the most soulful videos I’ve ever filmed using a drone. These children taught me a lot.

If you’re curious about who Putin is. The depths at which he will go to for power? I could not recommend this book by John Sweeney highly enough. It’s a sobering read. On closing the final page, it may become clear to you why Trump is now aligning himself w/ Russia. Hopefully the USA will prevail.
