"I was born and raised a little outside Los Angeles and started taking photos when I was 15. It was mostly action sports (snowboarding, skateboarding, surfing) and live bands. Right out of high school I moved to Carlsbad (San Diego) to continue shooting action sports.

I was fortunate enough to get a great job at Transworld Surf Magazine working for the photo editor. As much fun as I had shooting action sports I started to shoot more portraits and just fell in love. I knew that I had to do that for the rest of my life. 

A few years after being in San Diego I moved back up to Los Angeles and went to Art Center College of Design. After graduating I stayed in LA for a bit and decided to try out New York. So here I am with my husband and Chihuahua living it up in Brooklyn!"
