In 2011, Sachi Cunningham quit her dream job and her psychiatric medication ( for Bipolar 1 ) in search of a deeper sense of wellbeing in daily relationship with the ocean. She and her partner hit the road for what became a 14-month-long road trip across the Americas along the Pacific from LA to Chile.
Today, Sachi is an award winning documentary filmmaker, photographer, journalist, and Professor at San Francisco State University. She recently released the film CRUTCH, which chronicles the gravity defying life of Bill Shannon, an internationally renowned artist, breakdancer and skate punk—on crutches.
Parallel to her films and teaching obligations, Sachi maintains a career as one of the very few photographers who brave the heavy water of Northern California, where she is known for documenting big waves and the women who ride them. Sachi's forthcoming film is She Change.
