Welcome to my website!
I have been a sports and portrait photographer for over 10 years and love sharing my work with others.
I grew up in the Bay Area, playing competitive soccer and developing my love for art. In high school I was recruited to play college soccer at San Francisco State University. There, I double majored in International Relations and Art, focusing in photography and ceramics. Post-grad I have spent my time teaching, coaching, and building my portfolio.
Now I bring art and sports together in my sports photography. I thrive on the competitive energy, the excitement of gamedays, and the challenge to take a better photo than the one before.
My portrait, event, and travel photography is centered around freezing genuine moments. I love finding the small moments from across a room, a candid laugh from a graduating senior, or beautifully mundane interactions somewhere new.

artist statement
My photographic work is about preserving fleeting human experiences and the relationship people hold with the spaces around them. My commitment to freezing time and capturing genuine, unarranged moments in a warm, cinematic light drives my work. Whether it's the inclusion of small figures within vast landscapes, the presence of anonymous faces walking or standing against the backdrop of urban architecture, or the sight of individual protesters in a crowd, my subjects’ blindness to the camera allows me to capture their authentic selves as they go about their day.
I find that my current mood, whether consciously or unconsciously, becomes infused into the images, adding layers of significance to each picture. My deep admiration for cinema has played an important role in my journey as a photographer. I aspire to demonstrate all the emotion and narrative depth held in a full-length film in my singular images. My photography is a reflection of my deep-seated desire to connect with my surroundings, finding the often-overlooked beauty in the everyday.
