Photography has been part of my life for many years, both professionally and creatively. I started with a simple curiosity about capturing people, places and everyday moments, and over time it became something much more meaningful to me. I love the way photography allows us to slow down, really look at the world around us, and tell a story through a single image.
I have experience working across photography, digital content and visual production, and I enjoy sharing what I've learned with others. My background in production has also given me the opportunity to work with different cameras, lighting setups and creative environments, which I bring into my photography classes.
