Hi! I'm Marcus Villagran, a Cambodian-Mexican American multimedia specialist from Las Vegas, NV, with 7 years of experience shooting daily news, documentaries and videos for non-profit organizations. Currently living in Brooklyn, NY. Part-time resident of Humboldt County, CA.
I want to support organizations and people who are doing thoughtful work for social good. If that sounds like you, send me an email.
