A few things that will help you to know me better…
I am grateful for the opportunities to be in beautiful places, to meet amazing people, and to be affected by them.
I believe that art has the ability to connect people, in hopes of building stronger communities.
The community that we live in is the world.
By listening to different stories, I gain more understanding of our whole community.
Listening is, I think, our best hope for peace.
I have found that traveling to new places and seeking out new experiences is the best way to understand the world, and my place in it.
I am a storyteller.
Storytelling is how I approach photography and design.
I am also an actor, director and designer for theatre and film in the American West. I have toured Italy as a singer, and I’ve worked with bands from all over the world as a stage manager for concerts and festivals.
In short, I have been lucky.
(I also work my ass off.)
The symbol that I use for my signature is a paper crane.
A paper crane is an idea…
It is the possibility that from as little as a piece of paper, we can approach an artistic form. Through a few simple folds, we can create an archetype of peace and possibility.
This is my inspiration and my aspiration for what I do.
