I am a photographer and digital artist in the Texas Hill Country and San Antonio area. I was born in Fredericksburg, Texas and have lived in Kerrville since. I call Corpus Christi a second home of sorts; I live on my family's boat on weekends, holidays, and summers. A senior at Our Lady of the Hills Regional Catholic High School, I have been Editor-in-Chief of the school newspaper for two years, and I'm attending Trinity University in San Antonio this autumn with plans to major in Art and Communications (or English, haven't decided).

Although until fairly recently I've only shot photojournalistic work for my school, I now focus mainly on portrait and product photography by shooting glamor-style, classic, and emotive portraits for clients from the very young to some of the older, wiser folks around. In my work, I aim for a clear theme or message to come forth from each piece by seeing visual arts the same way I see literature: a medium through which to portray the human condition.
