I'm an artist based in Southern California and a graduate of the Visual Arts program at the University of California San Diego. I have worked as a photographer, designer and product developer since 1998. I'm currently working on a photographic series called "Daze Gone By", which explores loss, relationships, sexuality, and the passage of time in a post-pandemic world. My photographic process integrates writing and film in various formats from 35mm to 4x5. Original artwork is available for purchase.
Small works by 40 photographic artists. February 11 - March 11, 2022. Sparks Gallery, Gaslamp Quarter, Downtown San Diego.
Solo exhibit featuring a collection of portraits of LGBTQ+ friends and allies. This project began in 2016 after the Pulse Nightclub shooting. As our community came under violent attack by extremists and the Trump administration, I began shooting this series of portraits to promote visibility and acceptance. Featuring over 20 medium and large-scale works, these intimate portraits are a testament to our community's beauty and resilience. This exhibit coincided with San Diego Pride 2019 and was hosted by Safelight Labs in Downtown San Diego.
