POET, PHOTOGRAPHER, STORYTELLER.

“WHAT DO YOU DO”

SPOKEN WORD POEM

“ECHO TRAILS”

LONG EXPOSURE PHOTO COLLABORATION WITH MY DOG

The greatest gift my parents ever gave me—besides my life and a sick name—would be a childhood of constant moves.

My unique experience growing up has shaped who I am significantly: I accidentally make a new friend in every space I enter. The stories I collect around the world are my most sentimental possessions, and I wear authenticity as proudly as my purple hair.

In each new friend-group, I savor the role of photographer.  It’s my way of bringing permanence to the ephemeral. I seek to turn my affectionate attachment to people, places, things, etc, into art. 

Poems, to me, have always felt like a puzzle—choosing the right pieces to put together to create an image, and when you get to the end you feel satisfaction for having found what fits where. 

They say a picture’s worth a thousand words, but how much is a word worth?
