Photography was one of the first ways I learned how to express myself creatively. It’s been nearly a decade now and it’s still the best way for me to tell a story. I hope you enjoy my page!

It all started the moment my sister handed me her film camera for the first time. At first, I wasn’t sure if it was the allure of the technology or a desire to support my sister’s hobby that drew me in, but I knew I wanted one for myself when I grew up. I realized I truly loved photography when I got my first camera at around 16 years old, after a hardworking summer picking grapes with my mom and dad to save up for it. Owning that Canon T5i wasn’t just about spending money—it was the first time I committed to a passion or hobby. I’ve been pursuing that passion ever since.
