From an early age, nature has been at the centre of my being. Art has been woven into that narrative, and my early years were marked by an interest in drawing, painting, and ceramics. Photography came into my life in my early 20’s and caught my fascination, acting as a supporting role to painting and drawing.

As with many others, the pandemic was a shift in life and routine and became the impetus for me to dive deeper into using my camera. Walking the nature trails close to home brought out a deeper awareness of the beauty in my neighbourhood, right within city limits. My love of capturing nature with my camera soon became near obsession, and my other artistic endeavours soon fell by the wayside (for now).
