A little bit about me:

My love of photography goes back to when I was eleven years old, the year my father gave me an old 110mm instamatic camera and told me to document our trip across country.  I remember standing in front of Old Faithful in Yellowstone Park.  I was not only transfixed by the power of nature but by the similar trance of the people around me.   Devils Tower in Wyoming pulled me like a magnet to the feet of its majestic height and the eerie shadow it created below.  I shot an entire roll of film on each.  My dad was so angry with me for doing that because we still had so many sites to see! It was then I knew I wanted to continue viewing life through the lens. 

My formal education is based in photography, interior design and most recently I’ve become a certified yoga instructor.  In my travels, (whether near or far) I gather images and inspiration.  As photographer I view life and culture through the lens and make it my personal experience.  As a yoga teacher, I incorporate the idea of oneness, compassion, and a little bit of humor into my teaching.
