I have loved everything about photography all my life. I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography at the University of Louisville and a Master of Fine Arts in Cinema and Photography at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. 

​

I create traditional photographic works and digital collages. My collage work is created through digital imagery, film, textures, papers, found objects, and various materials combined into Photoshop. Most of the imagery collected is from my daily photographs or film archives. I am interested in creating collages that allow me to imaginatively express my fears, dreams, desires, and views of the world. Typically my collages explore ideas such as identity, nature, chaos, serenity, and isolation. I enjoy collecting similar and dissimilar pieces and then collaging them together to form a new reality or make a statement about the current reality in which we live.

 

More recently, I have enjoyed exploring travel, landscape, and street photography. Capturing the simplicity of light and shadow in the environment helps me slow down, be patient, and enjoy the beauty of the natural world. Photography is a way for me to connect with people and communicate my stories to my audience.

I have framed photographs and prints for sale. If you want to purchase a print that is not already framed, please message me. Custom-framed prints could take three to four weeks, depending on frame availability.
