Bio & Artist Statement
I grew up hiking, horseback riding and herding cattle in the ranchlands of Western Marin County in Northern California.
My lifelong fascination with the world of nature and the importance of conservation and preservation defines my relationship with the natural world around me.
From the brown, oak-studded hills of Northern California to the verdant hills of Northwestern Connecticut, the flora and fauna, the architecture, the people, each have a story to tell.
I use multiple exposures and in-camera experimental processes to build dreamworlds of these living landscapes, honoring their rich legacies.
