Thanks for stopping by….
I am an artist and a visual storyteller with instinctive design and creativity sensibilities. Photography gives me the opportunity to embrace my love of nature, people, and the urban landscape. When alone in the wilderness, these moments of meditative stillness add an extra dimension to what I see through the lens.
