Up Close: Daniel Pixley

In this episode of Up Close, host Casandra Eames sits down with Daniel Pixley, whose journey started in Ames before taking him across borders. Casandra and Daniel reflect on what it means to live in different parts of the world, and how two people from very different places ended up meeting at Iowa State University. They talk about the rhythm of life in Ames, from early mornings at the Main Street Farmers’ Market to the quiet, steady pull the city has on those who’ve called it home. Daniel shares what keeps drawing him back to Ames, and why, even after time away, it still feels like the place he belongs.
