Painter//Photographer//Talent

I am an artist, in all that I do. 

I have studied and practiced art making since I could hold a paint brush. I'm not kidding, my first framed landscape I painted at 4 years old. My dad was a commercial photographer... so I grew up a photo assistant, and sometimes a model. I did a work study program at The Victoria & Albert Museum, in Sculpture, and Fine Metals departments. At The Evergreen State College I studied Fine Art and Sociology. I spent the next 10 years working as talent, often in charge of wardrobe styling, hair/makeup, and location scouting.  I intertwined working as a model, with becoming a photographer by photographing my model friends.  More recently I have enjoyed product photography and design.  I build websites and create graphics. Basically I do everything that's visual and creative and would love to talk to you about your art direction, talent, or photoraphy needs.
