To celebrate World Day against Trafficking Persons, I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Terry Date and photographer, Amanda Sabga, from the Eagle Tribune for a feature in the North Andover Magazine. During our time together, we talked about the power of Art to change our world and about how Art breaks barriers both in creating awareness and healing.
I look forward to sharing this feature soon!

Jon - Congrats Matty - beautiful photos and capture of this powerful issue. It is severely underestimated and unknown amongst the general population. Looking forward to my first PWB opportunity!
