I started shooting film after finding my dad's old film camera - an 80s Nikon automatic SLR. In high school I took classes on photography, focused on film processing and digital manipulation. I started collecting a variety of cameras without knowing much about them, and tried a lot of different film techniques - but never shared my work. After my high school's darkroom was torn down and I graduated, I didn't work on anything for over a year and a half. Early in 2018 I set out create a body of work I want to share with the world, and started to sell the cameras I'd haplessly collected to replace them with more useful tools for the style I aspired to create.

For a long time, I only shot 35mm but recently have begun to shoot more digitally, using various cameras over the years including Leica, Minolta, and my Lomb LC-A.

I'm inspired heavily by early street photography and the work of Vivian Maier, Nancy Rexroth, and Ilse Bing.
