Alex Torres Park City Studios Founder Humans of Harborview Creative Director

Alex is the founder of Park City Studios [https://www.parkcitystudiosct.com/] and creative director for the Hunmans of Harborview. Alex served as an educator within the Bridgeport Public Schools for 7yrs as a Biology teacher and realized he wasn't cut out for the classroom. We've all encountered a bitter burnt-out educator who seems to hate their job but the stay. Alex didn't want to take the quit but stay option, so he ventured off into the world of entrepreneurship. The Humans of Harborview started an idea to help launch his photography business but is since turned into a service for the community.
