A self-taught artist, I enjoy creating eclectic photographs through both film and digital mediums. Starting off with my father’s dusty old digital camera, I began finding my photographic voice through the vacancies of lonely abandoned spaces. Through these documentations, I aim to capture the essence of these unique spaces and to breathe new life into them despite their decay.

In recent years, I began stepping out from the solidarity of abandoned spaces to invite new faces into my photographs. In portraiture, I began experimenting with different techniques including multiple and long exposures. Eagerly, I dove into collecting and creating with antique film cameras. These days, most frequently I utilize a hefty Mamiya RB67 medium format camera.

I am currently based in New Bedford, Massachusetts but am eager to travel to create.
