I grew up with a mother in New Mexico and a father in Hawaii. I now call the river-run Missouri my home.  I'm a mother. I'm terrified of life, yet more in love with it than I can begin to say. I've photographed for 15 + years and have my MFA in photography from SIUE. It's the observation and connection with this gorgeous, weird world that keeps me in this beautiful practice.
