My journey has taken me all over the world…

…working overseas as a contractor for the military to spending years a decade as a 911 dispatcher. Along the way, I always felt like something was missing, even as I stayed busy helping others. Eventually, I listened to that feeling and made the leap back to school to study cinematic arts. That’s where I also fell in love with photography and discovered the beauty of capturing both still and moving pictures. It also helped me reconnect with my creative side, leading me to painting, drawing, and making handmade jewelry—things that bring me a deep sense of joy and freedom.
