Justin Dalaba is a multimedia producer telling stories at the intersection of climate, culture and the natural world through documentary photography and videography. Originally trained as a conservation biologist, he embraced visual storytelling to inspire change through narratives that are as hopeful as they are informative. His work has been featured in outlets such as National Geographic, Ocean Geographic, Wild Planet Photo Magazine, and CBC News. While completing his master’s at Syracuse University’s Newhouse School, he received two grants through The Alexia, a prestigious award supporting storytellers to promote social change and cultural understanding. Prior to Preserving Legacies, he worked to advance science communications and storytelling at the Northeast Climate Adaptation Science Center, Cornell University, University of Florida, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and Sea Grant.
