I grew up under the bright, endless light of Southern California, but I’ve always been drawn to the quiet corners where stillness gathers and light slows down.

​

I studied watercolor and English at Westmont College, drawn to the way pigment drifts through water the way a line of poetry drifts through the mind. Photography came later as an unexpected expansion of my medium, a new way to work with light, shape, and shadow.

​

What began as a personal instinct to preserve memory and face before time could move both forward grew into a twenty–year portrait career.

​

Over time, my gaze shifted to the polar edges of my attention: the brief flare of sunlight on a petal, the vast silhouette of a mountain against a cloud. My work is less about the scene itself than the trace it leaves behind — moments that feel both familiar and entirely your own.

​

Now, I create limited–edition fine art prints on carefully chosen papers, each one a conversation between image, texture, and light.
