---I am originally from the san francisco bay area, and hold a masters of professional studies in digital photography from the school of visual arts in nyc.For over a decade, I was an e-comm/product photographer specialist at Macy's ‘dot-com’ still-life studio. additional freelance events, archival, and documentary work included the world famous apollo theater in harlem, the museum of the city of new york, the asia society, and the south street seaport museum in manhattan.My personal work includes explorations of the Self, where i aim to create work which peers behind the scenes of our place in the world. i love following my curiosities and treat photography as a memory holder, as an idea palace, as therapy, and as healer. I find a beauty in the seemingly mundane, and revel in how people inhabit their daily environment.Currently I reside in Durham NC, and in 2023, a recipient of a North Carolina Arts Council Artist Support Grant awarded through the Durham Arts Council.---analog and digital photography experience, e-comm/product, portraiture, artwork reproduction/archival, events, fine art gallery exhibitions, lightroom & capture one, adobe suite, google suite, microsoft 365.always looking for interesting projects leaning towards documentary, human interest and human experience storytelling.---Specialties: natural light portraiture, photographic instruction, creative composition, interviewing.
