My creative journey began formally with a strong foundation in film and video. I earned an A.S. degree from Allan Hancock College in Santa Maria, CA, specializing in Applied Design Media/Film. Furthering my passion, I spent time at Cal State Northridge, immersing myself in their highly regarded film program with a particular emphasis on cinematography. This extensive background in motion picture has gifted me with a unique understanding of light, composition, and narrative—elements I now bring to every still image I create.
I have since turned my primary focus to still photography as a powerful and immediate means to express my creativity. Whether through the grand sweep of a landscape or the intimate detail of an everyday object, I thoroughly enjoy getting out and capturing subjects that spark my interest in the moment. It’s about preserving the feeling, the atmosphere, and the unique story each scene tells.
