I’ve always been drawn to creation—to using my hands, to seeing things differently, to capturing the world in a way that makes people feel something. My love for photography started long before I ever held a camera. I watched my grandfather—cigar in hand, camera to his face—frame the world through his own artistic eye. I saw the way he observed, and I learned that art isn’t just about what you see; it’s about how you see it.

Though I dreamed of art school, life led me down a different path. I studied communications, took a few photography courses, and landed in a corporate career that, over time, felt like it was pulling me further from who I was. But the camera was always there. Travel cracked something open in me—it was my gateway to creativity, to freedom, to seeing the world fully. I didn’t just document places; I felt them, I absorbed them, and I translated that feeling into imagery.

Eventually, I couldn’t ignore the pull anymore. I left my corporate job after 11 years, diving headfirst into the unknown. What followed has been a journey of rediscovery—of honing my craft, deepening my connection to holistic living, and embracing the truth that photography isn’t just about capturing a moment, but about capturing essence.

I believe that no two people see the world the same way, and that’s what makes art powerful. My work is about emotion, movement, and meaning. Whether I’m photographing an individual, a brand, or a place, my goal is to translate the unseen into something tangible—something that moves you.
