...My name is Roj Rodriguez.<div><br></div><div>I am a photographer based out of NYC. I believe I reached out to Mr. Holt some time ago introducing myself & my sincere interest in "paying forward" for the kids all over the world.</div>
<div><br></div><div>What I would like to place on the OLPC table is my creative services - pro bono.</div><div><br></div><div>Feel free to check out my work at : <font color="#3333FF"><a href="http://www.rojrodriguez.com" target="_blank">www.rojrodriguez.com</a></font></div>
<div><br></div><div>From there, you'll see the spectrum of the work that I can do. Prior to taking my leap of faith of establishing myself in the industry in 2006, I used to assist photographers such as Mark Seliger, Annie Liebovitz, Mary Ellen Mark, Brigitte Lancombe, Michael Muller & dozens of other less-famous, but just as busy photographers.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I feel that it is imperative to "advertise" my work & my past experiences to entities such as OLPC - mainly because of your mission statement and the people its impacting - the children - and cannot afford to have it misrepresented.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Anyhow, since I've begun shooting on my own, I'm glad to mention that the equity in my name/work has been building up. I shoot for various organizations/magazines, etc. & my personal work ( Mexican body of work ) has been acquired by 4 museums across the states into their permanent collections. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Since becoming a father recently ( 3 kids ) and watching my eldest son, Diego who is 5 years old, on how he interacts with the technology around the apt ( my iPhone & laptop ) & at school. Amazes me every time on how the children of today and tomorrow will be native to such technology. It's almost as if it comes natural to them.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Again, I would love to launch those big campaigns you all must have bouncing around your heads. I would love to sit down with you all and discuss the ideas I have sketched up for your mission.</div><div>
<br></div><div>Take care and God bless everyone for what you have done so far...</div><div><br></div><div>Roj</div><div>-- <br><a href="http://www.reyesrodriguez.com" target="_blank">www.reyesrodriguez.com</a><br><br><a href="http://www.rojrodriguez.com" target="_blank">www.rojrodriguez.com</a><br>
