I studied with Larry Jordan, Governor Nelson and Al Wong. In school I experimented in Super 8, 16 mm and video. In 2017 I started experimenting with capturing images with my iphone. Having recently returned to the Bay Area, I found myself drawn to creating short montages. These short films are visual poems, expressions from moments of perceptions edited together as a weaving into a dream-like tapestry.
