Hello there! I'm a dedicated photographer with a passion for capturing compelling portraits and beautiful travel scenery. Currently based in the vibrant Chicagoland area, I find immense joy embarking on solo adventures overseas or finding the next hidden gem within one of Chicago’s bustling neighborhoods. When weather allows, you'll often find me biking while I listen to 70’s disco music.

Throughout my formative years, I navigated an atypical path, juggling numerous extracurriculars and grappling with the uncertainties of finding my true calling. I remember going on a middle school camping trip and taking a photography lesson and despite harsh cold and 3 feet of snow I took an inspiring photo just outside my window of translucent icicles that formed and reflected the landscape. Unfortunately I learned that obsessively carrying the freshly developed photo would slowly ruin the print. Since then, I had a strong connection of capturing natural scenes.

My approach to photography is rooted in the belief that vulnerability and joy bring the best angle out of anyone. I truly believe everyone should have a photo they’re proud to see them themselves in. I have gained invaluable insights intomy own success as an artist. I have accomplished notable milestones, including contributing to Emmy-nominated projects, venturing across 14 diverse countries, and participating in the production of a 2018 Super Bowl Commercial. These rich experiences were foundational for my creative storytelling and art of capturing breathtaking images.
