“The initial curiosity of the traveler gradually evolved into an endless journey of quests for scientific understanding in order to solve a psychological mystery. Life itself, along with communication with ‘the other’ and existential crises, can be incredibly perplexing, leaving me constantly seeking answers—answers that I can rely on. However, this pursuit, coupled with doub and intense emotions, makes me feel as if I'm in the midst of a war.”
“I like to think of everything I can pull from my head to contribute to the final image(s). Most often it will take a few months for a project to take fruition.”
“It was analog, black and white photography so it was again a different pace but I just fell in love with it. I knew that it was the medium I wanted to use in my creative practice.”

“My work is guided by love and I take inspiration in what I love the most — life, my family, and community…I genuinely enjoy connecting with people and I try to celebrate our togetherness through creating images full of love.”
“Image-making has always been a natural form of expression for me. Since I first picked up a camera in the 8th grade, I’ve been drawn to telling stories through color and connecting with people.”
“I loved the process of taking pictures: you could capture a moment or a place that you wouldn't notice if you were without a camera.”
