I like to say that I grew up in the kitchen because dad, the chef, was always cooking. These key memories help me create beautiful personal work that play with mood and feeling. Light becomes the tool that supports my stories and creates a sense of familiarity. I want to transport you to the hacienda in Mexico where the smell and sound of the grill makes your mouth water. Or a picnic in the park as you lay back and take in the suns warmth. The breeze blows your hair as you relax and enjoy life’s simple pleasures. Bringing both my passion for food and the human element together, allows me to tell visual stories that are reminiscent of my childhood. These shared experiences allow me to foster connection with my audience.
