One of my earliest memories growing up in Chicagoland is playing with Sun Print Paper as a toddler. I remember being awed by the fact that I could arrange objects on this magic paper and place it under the sun to be transformed into my own creations. It was enchanting to me to be able to alchemize natural energy into art.
Back in 2009, I stumbled into the world of creative work when an accordion player friend of mine needed someone to capture their tour through California. Prepared with only my passion for film photography from high school, my friend handed me his DSLR to document the tour. It was quickly clear I had discovered a new passion - the joy of supporting creative endeavors through my artistry.
In 2014, I found myself behind the lens for Seattle Arts and Lifestyle magazines such as the
Seattle Met and
City Arts, as well as working with commercial and private clients. By 2017, I added graphic design to my skill set and began working with a range of brands, non-profits, and in-house teams such as the Volunteer Park Conservatory, and Mr. Moxey’s. Today I am taking on small business clients offering a well-rounded set of skills to tackle any project.
