At a young age, I discovered who I am through vocal performance, theater, photography, and a sincere love of puppets. Through many art forms, I found my soul in artistry and creation.

Photography allows me to see a harsh world in beautiful light, with incredible connection. I feel fortunate that I have been able to document moments in time for others. There is profound joy that comes over me when I see one of my photographs featured on a client's wall, or when one of my students has a piece featured in an art show.

It is an honor to help others to shine, and shining is one of my things. In the spotlight, or keeping that light steady for someone else, I think we all deserve to feel like stars.
