Hello! Sabaidee! Konnichiwa!
Thank you for visiting my website! I’m an artist/photographer from the metro Atlanta, GA area. I’ve been drawing since I was a kid, and have enjoyed photographing people and places for over 25 years.
In my childhood days I would doodle and get lost in my stack of comic books and fantasy novels. In high school my sketchbook had the required scribblings dedicated to crushes. In my college years I entertained the idea of fine art. I guess I’ve lived long enough to realize that the truest art is in the experience of living, not so much the type of work that you create. These days my creative journey includes hanging out with friends, taking pictures, and enjoying spontaneous adventures.

(These are some really old interviews/pages, but I thought I would repost them to share! I don’t think much has changed in my world view on things, just glad to still be alive and still pursuing this art thing. 🙂 )
