Today is the last day for February because 2013 doesn’t have a leap year – the next time we get 366 days in a year will be in 2016 and it’ll be on a Monday. At the same time, it’s also the last day of my mini subject for my 2013 photo project on http://eyesee2013.tumblr.com/. … Continue reading Nice to meet you, Roy G. Biv

The Age of Social
Who knew getting people to understand social media would be a monumental task? People are tuned into social media when it comes to personal things, like staying in touch with family and friends, and it just makes sense to share articles, news, photos, etc. When it comes to social media for work, it’s a whole … Continue reading The Age of Social
Seven-ish
In my last post, I wrote about a personal photo project for 2013… a photo a day. Having already gone through one month, it’s been so far an interesting process – mainly that it requires a lot of discipline to keep up a photo a day. At the same time, the fact that taking a … Continue reading Seven-ish
Eye See 2013 – A photographic experiment
An idea is great – putting it down on paper and making it happen is even better. That’s a new year’s resolution and one that can easily be achieved with something I like to do… and that’s photography. A photo a day for 2013 – sounds easy enough, right? Well, I’m already barely two weeks … Continue reading Eye See 2013 – A photographic experiment
Parka Hunt: The search is on!
I’m spending today and tomorrow in a training session by facilitators from the Geneva Communications Network on using social media for work.

Today’s session … Continue reading Parka Hunt: The search is on!

Giving UNISDR a face-lift
In late September 2010, I started working with UNISDR, the strategic arm of the United Nations Secretariat that works on disaster risk reduction. One of the specific tasks I was given was to redesign and redevelopment the organization’s corporate website. The idea had been floating around the organization for a few years. It wasn’t an … Continue reading Giving UNISDR a face-lift

Provided the concept, architecture and design for this website for a private French tutor. It also includes a private workspace for students to access documents and other learning materials based on each lesson. The site was designed using WordPress and has a minimalist layout to stay inline with the tutors vision for the service – … Continue reading French My Way
Marketing with a bit of a conscience
UPDATE (4 March 2014): I just found the presentation we put together for the final project of the course on how to provide safe drinking water to South Sudan. Download it here. I’ve enrolled in a three-week course at New York University on using marketing and communications for social/environment/development issues… basically – taking what Coca … Continue reading Marketing with a bit of a conscience
Resume/CV
In early 2010 I decided to redesign my resume or Curriculum Vitae in somewhat of less traditional way. The idea was to highlight my work around the world in a visual way and make the document standout more given that I was applying for highly competitive jobs in the United Nations and other international organizations. … Continue reading Resume/CV
