i came to photography through a collaborative art project with two friends. i started to carry my camera with me everywhere, to capture my world.

turns out, you pick a thing or two just by doing it everyday. so i do just that.

my father was a part time photographer, part of the many hats he wore in this life. i have a photograph of his in my bedroom. my mom styled it. it is quite possibly my most treasured possession. proof of my parents and their life before i was born. of their adventures, of their capturing their world.

so, i believe in love. and wearing my heart on my sleeve. jumping off into the unknown and adventure. risk taking. challenging myself.
