My name is Ian Kim, and I'm in 9th Grade at Harvard-Westlake School in Los Angeles, CA. Over the past few summers I've found an interest in documentary filmmaking and animation, working on multiple short films with the Righteous Conversations Project. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I've collaborated with students from around the world to document the effects of sheltering at home on youth. Recently, I've found a love for photography as a medium for documentation and expression, and I look forward to discovering new ways to work with the community and bring important social issues to light.
