b. Santa Barbara, CA 1988
Lives / Works in Los Angeles, CA

I attempt to document both the beautiful and the banal moments that people incessantly experience daily, but will go unnoticed by their surrounding community. I choose my subjects for their attributes that are intriguing and important to me and that I will be able to relay my experiences with these subjects through image. My intent is to exhibit an idea that is intangible as a human being’s individual isolation.
