Born and raised in New Orleans, I always had the natural desire to live and work within the arts. While experimenting with different forms of art, even music and theater, I went on to obtain my Art Education degree and a minor in Art History from L.S.U. I still dabble in various art mediums, but photography has become my passion! I have been photographing the world around me since I received my first camera at the age of eight. A masterpiece waiting to be discovered was peering back at me through my camera. After studying film photography for years and even teaching darkroom techniques to kids, I began to study the technological wonders of digital photography. With the opportunity to work directly with some of New Orleans’ top photographers, plenty of photo shoots to always keep me busy, and my art on display around the city, life could not be going much better for me in New Orleans. But as Hurricane Katrina forced me to realize, there was still a world waiting to be discovered through the eyes of my camera. Subsequently, Denver, Colorado has become my new home and is now my view from behind the lens. However, with a career in photography I am blessed to be able to return to New Orleans a few times a year for photo gigs and art exhibits.
