I’m originally from the Marlboro Projects in Brooklyn, NY. As a child growing up in a low income family, being creative was as much entertainment as it was a way of communicating my emotions. After achieving my dream of gaining acceptance into the School of Visual Arts for Illustration, I experienced an artist block. During this time I dropped out and moved to Santa Fe, NM. It was there that I picked up a camera for the first time; a decision that forever changed how I perceive my surroundings and make art. All of my work is about capturing the magic in ‘the everyday’.
