"I can write about my love and passion for photography, but I'd rather tell you about my experiences. I've shot everything from formal events to basement concerts, from balancing on slippery rocks in a river, getting chased by coyotes in the desert and hiking up a mountain to get the perfect shot (ok I drove most the way, but it still counts). I'm an award winner in the 2017 Ontario Biannual Art Exhibition, and the 2019 inaugural West End Photo Expo. Since 2017, I have exhibited my work in galleries."
