2010 was my first payday. I took photos and made a video of a graduation at an alternative high school. I sold DVDs to the parents and made enough money to believe that visual arts could be my career at the age of 14.

Since then I’ve traveled a few different paths and had many amazing opportunities to work on creatively fulfilling and award-winning projects.

Today I am based in Texas. I’m focused on creating books that are inspired by my interactions with people and nature. I am also working on commissions for album artwork and other fun projects. Many of my photos are available for licensing and have been licensed by some of the largest publications in the world, such as Cosmopolitan Magazine.
