I was born in Southeastern Wisconsin among the cornfields and coyotes. I was raised to love animals and friends, walking and cooking, baking and eating, suspense and surprises. Problem solving is probably my favorite past-time.

Everything I do is based on a desire for contact with people I know, and people I'm meant to meet. I strive to maintain these connections over distance and extend the common experiences that keep us together. Most of my time is spent making food for others and taking pictures in an attempt to keep a constant visual archive of experience.

I currently live in Los Angeles, CA and work as the Eric Gill Project Archivist at the William Andrews Clark Memorial Library. I can usually be found walking around the Silver Lake Reservoir.
