Artist statement:

I am an adventurer at heart; I yearn to see the world, to grasp everything life has to offer. Through my photography I hope to capture the human experience, and to share it. I hope to inspire others to see life as I do, through my lens. With my photographs, I attempt to capture the delicate beauty of each fleeting moment, whether it’s exploring the everglades in Florida or participating in the spiritual Holi festival in India. I’ve learned so much through my journeys. Most importantly, that language is not a barrier for friendships, and that borders cannot contain human connection. These lessons and the incredible diversity of the world, from nature to culture, is exactly what I hope to express in my photography.
