Photography gives me purpose. It will never pay my bills but it is my career in life. I just want to take photos.

Back when I was a kid, I felt like I didn’t have any control. By picking up the camera, it gave me something to focus on and allowed me to not feel so useless. Photography has been a way to center myself and block out some of the shit in my life.

Now, photography still allows me to center myself and it also helps me manage my depression. It allows me to explore and see different journeys and that the world isn’t black and white. We all have a limited amount of time on this earth and I want to document the years I’m here - both my life and the lives around me. I have my own view of this shit world but there are so many ways to experience it; and I believe that if someone wants to do something, it should matter. So I hope to present a body of work that allows the viewer to see diverse outlooks in life and photos that elicit different emotions.

Thank you for taking the time to view my work. Keep coming back - I’ll continue to add to this collection.
