What you have gained from working with RRP? RRP was a phenomenal learning experience. Facilitating discussions on race with groups of different races was not only satisfying for the soul, it forced me to look at the world from different perspectives, which is often the most overlooked of the life skills. I was also blessed with the opportunity to help make the RRP Rough Cuts film, which launched my foray into documentary and narrative filmmaking that has led me down various adventures in the past year. Keep rockin' RRP!

Hobbies: Filmmaking, Writing/Sharing words, Various types of community work, banging my drums.

Where are you now? Working for a non-profit with at risk kids in Morristown, NJ. Started a video/photo production company (www.kapoorproductions.com). Plan on attending law school next year and simultaneously being a documentary filmmaker. Impossible? I think not.
