I am a Native American photographer based in Texas. I was lucky enough to be born to a family that valued travel, adventure, and photography. By the age of seven I was developing film in a makeshift darkroom with my photographer father. He instilled in me a love of documenting the wonderful world we are privileged to inhabit. As an adult I kept my love of travel alive, documenting with photographs along the way. While completing a bachelor’s degree in accounting and spending many years in a corporate job, I continued to explore my life-long passions photography and travel. After many years in the corporate world, I began to turn my love of photography into a second career by displaying and selling my photographs in museums, galleries, online and at local art shows. I am interested in adventurous travel and photographing the beauty in everyday life. My favorite subject matter is nature, whether it is a beautiful landscape, animal, or flower. I believe getting outside is good for the soul. Through my artwork, I try to bring the outside in as much as possible. I am currently blessed to live in the horse country of North Texas providing me many opportunities to explore nature and capture its beauty.
