Gabriella Parsons was a former storyteller producer intern. She is a documentary photographer and journalist born-and-raised in Lincoln, Nebraska. She is a senior journalism major at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where she concentrates in photo/video production, women and gender studies, English and Spanish. In her work, Gabriella combines the ethical integrity of a journalist with the stylistic flare of an artist, focusing on topics from the environment to mental health to unsolved crime scenes to liberation movements. For the past year, Gabriella has been a fellow of the UNL international photojournalism program, Global Eyewitness, which took her to Uganda and then Puerto Rico to report on emerging global issues. She also works with newly resettled youth at Lincoln High School mentoring them in iPhone photography and videography. The summer before she graduates college, Gabriella is excited to join the PBT team as a production intern to better understand this place she calls home and all the stories that make it unique.
