THE STORY SO FAR
I am a traveler, and the urge to roam and my love for photography are happy companions.

A self-confessed romantic, I feel compelled to document the beauty and poetry I see everywhere I go.

I'm happiest with passport and camera in hand, experiencing someplace new and preserving my own version of history (with a small 'h') for the curious few who follow.

I count my blessings every day to have discovered my passion so early in life.

Some never do.

CUBA, NEW YORK & PARIS CALLING

Right now I'm enjoying a love affair with Paris and her beautiful people as well as the gritty sensuality of New York City.

Cuba and the optimistic warmth of her people has also captured my heart and continuing to explore and document this culture is high on list of 'must do' experiences.
