Since its groundbreaking in 2016, EarthCam was working to document this 67-floor, fluted terra-cotta glass exterior NYC skyscraper.

It took over 48 camera angles, 8 widescreen multi-layered panoramas, and 2.5 million images to deliver this epic time-lapse movie.

EarthCam says "Our fleet of cameras from different vantage points across the city enabled us to capture incredible footage of our tower becoming a permanent part of the New York City skyline.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ab_2_bHt_GE

​​​​​​As a young political refugee, multilingual communicator, and US citizen now, I know that my stretched mind causes a spiritual fire.

It has allowed me to embrace new hopes and aspirations to become involved with startups and turnaround projects in a couple of languages. I keep the faith, never lose hope and practice charity. 

I've served as a Manager for a major nonprofit, with the government, and also with commercial companies in major media markets. My work, devotion, and commitment strategy and failure are never an option. This mission can be contagious.
