The Boston Globe: Bus 19 – “The Way Up”

(Boston Globe) Bus 19: Life on the Line – George and Johnny Huynh want a better life – and they believe they can get it through school. They have to. It’s the only thing in their control. Video and editing by Lauren Frohne/Globe Staff; Additional video by Yoon S. Byun/Globe Staff.

Videographer, editor, reporter

I had the privilege of working on this story for The Boston Globe with writer Billy Baker and photographer Yoon S. Byun. These kids are amazing. They’ve had every obstacle thrown in their path — poverty, familial language barriers, abuse, their father’s suicide, living in a rough neighborhood, and much more than you could ever imagine — and yet they are top students at one of the best exam high schools in Boston.
