Humans of Cancer.

As a longtime photographer, I have spent over four years capturing the intensity of athletes and the grace of performers, but beyond the action, I found something deeper—stories of struggle, resilience, and triumph. My camera became more than a tool for documentation; it became a way to understand the human experience, to see beyond the surface and into the heart of perseverance.

I chose to bring this vision to healthcare, sharing the narratives we often don’t see in our daily lives—the experiences of cancer patients, caregivers, and survivors who are fighting battles both seen and unseen. These are stories of grit, loss, hope, and humanity, and yet, too often, they go unheard. Humans of Cancer exists to change that.

Our Mission and Vision

Amplify the voices of cancer patients and caregivers, giving them a space to share their journeys with honesty and vulnerability.
Foster understanding and empathy, bridging the gap between patients, families, and the broader community.
Challenge the stigma and fear surrounding cancer, replacing it with awareness, education, and shared strength.
Create a lasting archive of human stories, preserving the voices of those who have faced cancer with courage.

This project is more than just a series of interviews—it’s a movement to bring the human element back to discussions of illness and recovery.

Beyond the Present

As I pursue a future in medicine, I am committed to integrating storytelling into patient care, research, and healthcare communication. Medicine is often seen as clinical and scientific, but at its core, it is about people—their experiences, their struggles, and their hope.
