Elise Fried

An intense curiosity of the world and the beauty of the people who inhabit it has led me to interrelate fields to create my own work. By exploring the “grey” or forgotten areas of the world, I can champion the voices of underrepresented peoples and use my own gifts of relative freedom. This desire has led to story writing, hard journalism, media production and institutional matchmaking for specific causes.
