A love for art of all forms draws me towards creative expression. This expression adds meaning and an everlasting beauty to my experiences, and also changes the way in which I perceive the world.

My love for photography began with making art of people, particularly those that are close to me. I celebrate this with my "Joy" collection, which is the product of one of my happiest spaces behind the lens. I am grateful to all those that have allowed me to capture glimpses of their light.

I view poetry as an expression of the soul, using words as a doorway into feeling that lies beyond the realms of the intellect. I draw inspiration from the poets Mary Oliver, David Whyte, Rainer Rilke, and Rosemerry Trommer to name a few.

Our creativity is a blessing that we all share, and I believe that the states accessed through this expression are indeed gateways to our higher selves.
