Architecture as an art form, and our beautiful natural landscapes, have fostered a life-long fascination for me to photograph and explore. 

I studied photography, fine art, design, and filmmaking before establishing DESIGN SPUR collaborative for graphics and design and have taught typography, graphic design, photography, motion design, and filmmaking at the Ringling College of Art and Design.

My work has been included in Wallpaper Magazine, Dazed, CMYK Magazine, Architectural Record, Sarasota Magazine, Sarasota Herald Tribune, Florida/Caribbean Architect Magazine, Yale Constructs Magazine, and in the books IN/FORMED by the LAND: The Architecture of Carl Abbott, Contemporary Southern Architects, Patriot Plaza, and Florida’s Agricultural Heritage.

I have been honored to receive the American Institute of Architects Photographer of the Year Award for the Florida/Caribbean region, and to have my photographs exhibited at Selby Gallery, Ringling College of Art and Design, Art Center Sarasota, the Center for Architecture Sarasota, and included in collections at the Library of Congress.
