My Story
I grew up in Venice Beach, a coastal community in Southern California that strongly influenced how I see the world. Being surrounded by the ocean and an urban landscape sparked my interest in observing moments as they happen and preserving them through photography. The constant energy and movement shaped my sense of timing and visual flow.
In 2006, I moved to Colorado and shifted my focus to the Rocky Mountains. I became interested in how weather, light, and time continually transform the landscape. Rather than seeing change as deterioration, I began to view it as a natural progression that adds character and depth over time.
In 2013, I returned to California and settled in Petaluma, in Sonoma County north of San Francisco. Living here has reinforced my understanding that change is constant. Moments are brief, and everything exists in relation to what came before and what follows.
