About the Journalist
KC 鄭康君 (b. 1995) is a Taiwanese-American photojournalist who has been based in Nairobi, Kenya, for six years, covering environmental change, cultural continuity, foreign interventions, and outdoor adventure. Her work began in the Arctic and extends globally, including challenging places like eastern Ukraine, northern Mozambique, and South Sudan. She’s the editor-at-large at The Xylom, an independent science newsroom covering the world’s most pressing health and environmental disparities.
With a background in ecology and art, KC initially picked up a camera to document the behind-the-scenes aspects of field research, before turning her attention to finding ways to humanize seemingly far-flung places for audiences curious about the world and their place in it.
