Hi! I grew up in the San Fernando Valley, where Los Angeles' diverse subcultures sparked my interest in storytelling and visual art. After earning both my undergraduate and graduate degrees from USC, I spent time working with studios such as The Walt Disney Company, NBC, and CBS.

I've always been a fairly reserved person, but over the past few years I've made a conscious effort to step outside my comfort zone. That led me to solo backpack through South America, Southeast Asia, and Australia—experiences that completely changed the way I see the world.

While Los Angeles will always be home, I'm constantly drawn to discovering new places and the everyday moments that make them unique. Whether I'm riding a motorbike through the mountains of rural Vietnam or sitting at a café in Bogotá watching life unfold, my film camera is always with me. Shooting on film slows me down, encourages me to be intentional, and helps me create images that feel honest, timeless, and connected to the places and people I'm photographing.
