Imran Nuri (he/him)

Hello! I’m Imran.
Artist, Storyteller, and shameless jack of all trades.

From creating a photo series of life advice from 1,000 strangers in 48 states to raising millions of dollars for childhood cancer research, starting a nonprofit that democratized philanthropy, giving speeches in front of thousands of people, growing social media followings, exhibiting artwork, designing websites, mentoring students, and so much more. I pick up new hobbies and interests like it's my job, and I tend to dive deeply into them. I'm proud to be a jack of all trades. That versatility makes me an outstanding asset to any team and extremely adaptable to new challenges.

I've always struggled with the idea of becoming a master of just one general thing. I've always wanted to be the kind of person who's good at many things, and so far, I think I've done a great job of that.
