About

A chance encounter/opportunity into the social service sector when Jeremiah (Damien) was 16 shaped the way he viewed the world around him. It dawned upon him that impact & change can be made in the lives of others, and that it can start with us - simply just by being present in someone's life. After spending some time in Advertising, Design & Web Development, Jeremiah made the bold decision to start his own ventures. 2 failed attempts later, his past experiences helped propel him into social entrepreneurship; where he now aims to impact & honor the lives of the local seniors through Photography - introducing a new way to active ageing engagements, helping the seniors rediscover their untapped potential. In efforts to keep updated with the F&B scene, Jeremiah in his spare time would delve back into some barista work; serving customers one cup at a time.
