Documentary photographer

Raised with a Buddhist upbringing in St. Louis, Missouri, I draw profound inspiration from my roots. My work is grounded in conveying, celebrating, and critiquing the world as it is through coexisting realities, exploring subjects such as food, people, places, Nature and visionary initiatives. I enjoy delving into policy issues aligned with my values and distilling them into clear, concise narratives for the public’s understanding.

My academic background includes a Master of Public Affairs with a focus on Public Policy and a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and International Studies from the University of Missouri-Columbia. I also hold a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training certificate from Heatwise in Brooklyn, New York.

i currently work as a yoga instructor at Urban breath and as the outreach and media specialist at a red circle.
