PHOTOGRAPHY, PAINTING, AND CALLIGRAPHY HAVE PROVIDED ME OUTLETS OF VISUAL STORYTELLING IN WHICH I CAN OBSERVE AND CAPTURE THE WORLD AROUND ME, BRINGING MY OWN EXPERIENCES, CULTURE, AND CREATIVITY TO EACH PIECE. AS I MOVE THROUGH MY LIFE, I AM ALWAYS LOOKING FOR PATTERNS AROUND ME, BOTH NATURAL AND MAN-MADE. I LOVE THE MOMENT WHEN I AM ABLE TO FULLY CAPTURE MY VISION IN A PHOTO OR PAINTING. EXPLORING BOTH FILM AND DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY, I HAVE SPENT THE PAST FEW YEARS SEEING THE WORLD AROUND ME THROUGH THE VIEWFINDER OF MY CAMERA, EXPERIMENTING WITH LIGHT, PATTERN, AND SHAPE.
