A little selfie before a sparring match at practice When I was in College, I joined the boxing team my senior year, and one of my favorite drills was something we called, “Cuban Boxing.” The rules were simple: tap your opponents shoulder, and dodge your opponent’s hand. No one gets hit in the face (intentionally). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68cb6a2dbf21b3107ab49182/ecc58529-ad1a-4f2c-a8d2-817e91fe6f51/Screenshot+2025-12-19+at+1.06.11+AM.png Blog - 12/27: How “Play” leads to Trust and Voice - 2025, Quote from “Cleo From 5-7” Talking to each other became so much easier.

Taken at an Enough is Enough Protest in Easton, Pennsylvania. I started my photography journey in 2018 during an “Enough is Enough” when I was 16 years old. I wanted to capture EVERYONE’S stories. I had only had my $300 Canon T6 for about 2 months, and LOADED up an SD card. Editing was a nightmare. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68cb6a2dbf21b3107ab49182/8773fcfa-454e-4a4b-bcc0-58bd62e5f069/Screenshot+2025-12-20+at+8.45.10%E2%80%AFPM.png Blog - 12/20 Intention is What Got My Work Seen - Photo by Daniel Gajda.

Exhibit at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC Now, every week, I make it my mission to go to a museum and capture something I find interesting with the goal of being extremely intentional with my images. It could be an interesting exhibit, it could be the people watching the exhibit, or it could be another factor, but the goal is to practice serious intentionality in order to find voice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68cb6a2dbf21b3107ab49182/8b348e75-9af3-4abd-8dfe-d12ffbe2b961/0K3A2066.jpg Blog - 12/20 Intention is What Got My Work Seen - December, 2025. Couple looking at an exhibit at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC. Usually, this involves me laying down in the middle of a museum, but that’s okay, because I go from 5 feet tall, to 2 feet tall which avoids EVERYONE’S eyeline. Before I knew it, I’m photographing viewers of museum art and I’m still firing that shutter quick to hit the moment, but the image has SO much more intention, and purpose. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68cb6a2dbf21b3107ab49182/56c5a38f-f9d3-4a3d-b565-5068fc2f211d/IMG_1654.jpg Blog - 12/20 Intention is What Got My Work Seen - May 2024, JJ Wong bouldering in their gown from Penn State University.
