Born in USA, 1974

Photography hobbyist on my way to imposter syndrome

​​

My fascination with photography began at a young age, nurtured by my father's passion for the art. Our annual pilgrimages to New York City revolved around exploring the latest and greatest photographic innovations from Japan. Each year, a new gadget, filter, or tripod fueled my curiosity about capturing the world around me.

​

However, the pursuit of photography took a backseat for many years. The advent of the digital revolution and, honestly, achieving greater financial stability, reignited my passion. Today, I actively seek opportunities to travel, whether with friends or through organized photography adventures. This allows me to explore new environments and capture them through my lens.

​

My artistic eye is drawn to the beauty of abandonment, particularly in the way nature reclaims its rightful space. Abandoned structures and forgotten landscapes hold a captivating story, one I strive to translate through photography.

​

While residing and working in Atlanta for Norfolk Southern Railroad, I also dedicate time to volunteering at the Georgia Aquarium, further exploring the wonders of our world. Through photography, travel, and volunteering, I continuously seek to connect with and document the diverse tapestry of life.
