I grew up outside of Atlanta in the 1990s, before moving to Colorado for most of my adult life, until last spring when I completed my Westward journey to San Francisco. It feels significant that I have now covered one side of the country to the other, and my travels and displacements have been constant inspiration for my developing photography practice. The crashing waves of Northern California are my new infatuation, but the Southwest still has my heart, and many of the photo projects I am currently developing are set in the western slopes of CO or the high deserts of NM.
