Art is the doorway I step through that brings my soul back to center. Art is memory made visible, a piece of existence that is never lost.

Photography is my favorite type of Art to create. A photograph feels like holding onto a piece of time, thats unrepeatable. I love that it’s like taking a fragment of life and giving it a place to live on forever.
Where do you find inspiration?As long as I remember I have moved through life naturally seeing snapshots in everything around me. My inspiration and love for photography I believe began as a little girl watching my mother develop film in a photography darkroom.
What would you do with $25,000?If I won $25,000 first, I would want to go on a trip with my kids to make a beautiful memory. Also It would be a dream to recover from our financial hardship, to building a foundation for stability, covering important needs while setting us up for a more secure future.
