I am the first son of two born in Anaheim California. I moved to the Northwest when I was 2 and started living in Vancouver Washington since I was 9. I took my first photography class as an alternative in a private catholic school in NE Portland. In the middle of that semester I switched back over to Heritage HS and resumed my photography class. I took off from there and continued to pursue my interest in photography going on to the next photography class where I ended up in AP Photography during my senior year.

I love this medium of art so much because I see a talent in myself and really admire the wide range of art that photography provides for everybody and all of the perspectives that can take place for each individual. It’s up to the photographer to create the idea and create the intended image out of a photo to their highest potential, and I feel that that is exactly what I’m doing. I only learn more and apply what I have learned through my work. My work isn’t just for the viewer, but mainly for me and my expressed moods and thoughts.
