In her photographic work for NGO’s and non-profit organizations, Mieke has worked in locations ranging from her current home base outside San Francisco, to the heart of Botswana, in sub-Saharan Africa. Much of her work to-date has been for children’s organizations, which allows her to explore the subtle similarities of childhood across cultural boundaries. She strives to represent the hope, progress, and success of NGO projects, both here in the U.S. and abroad.
