she/her
I am a self taught hybrid film and digital photographer living in Oakland, California. My photography practice is a creative work in progress, a labor of love, a homecoming, and a reimagining of how I want to make and share art.
My work lives at the intersection of storytelling and experimentation. I particularly love playing with film and testing it’s limits. I root my approach in curiosity, connection, presence, and care. I find inspiration in abstract details, thoughtful outside of the box gatherings, in between moments.
I love working with people who are striving for presence, authenticity, and celebration in community. Artists, weirdos, the deeply feeling, punks, queers, misfits. Folks who want to co create images not for performance, but from a place of honesty and intention.
You can explore some of my personal photography practice here.
I look forward to learning more about you.
all my best,

Land Acknowledgment + Positionality Statement
I acknowledge that the land I live and work on is the unceded ancestral homeland of the Lisjan Ohlone people, one of many Ohlone nations. I honor their ongoing presence and care for this land, and I am grateful to the stewards who have tended it for generations.
I welcome people of all races, cultures, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, ages, abilities, and spoken languages. Everyone deserves to feel seen, respected, and cared for.
For individuals and families impacted by incarceration, immigration systems, or ongoing violence and displacement (including Palestinian families), I am able to offer limited sliding-scale rates. Please reach out to inquire.
