BEHIND THE LENS

Born and raised in “sunny” California, although in some places unhealthy for the human condition. An artist since childhood, I have always felt passionate about the arts, specifically entertainment. I graduated from the California State University system with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Electronic/Visual Communications. I nearly double majored in Psychology as I am a natural at it and great at improving things (problem solver). Perhaps that's just the INTP in me. After much sacrifice and incredible hard work, I graduated with honors all of my academic life and was named at my university the “Most Outstanding Senior for Communications.” It didn’t get me far in life but hey, my life has been the most challenging “gift” one single human being could ever endure. But I am a SURVIVOR!! I am proud of my strength that came through these trials. Inspired by life and the complexities that define us as individuals, these experiences shaped me for who I am and the passion I put into my work today - writing, production, photography, digital retouching and design. Not to mention my immense love for dogs and all animals.

 

Considered an intuitive “old soul” stirred by existence and the works from pros, I have experienced many paths. I regard myself as a very honest, responsible, dedicated, highly logical, rational and conscientious perfectionist and a well-rounded polymath from all that encompasses the creative and tech fields to holistic nutritional health and physical therapy. I naturally excel at problem solving, thinking and all forms of communication. Yet I also have this severe comical personality!! Life is our greatest teacher and I am often approached to do stand-up; I love being expressively funny, turning bad experiences into positive funny things. I’ve been through it all but I’d be a fool to say I know it all. Growing and learning is an endless habit for me as my undying thirst for knowledge keeps me active in talking with pros, attending classes, conferences, seminars and workshops to expand knowledge to share and help others. But still, there is so much more to learn. My ultimate quest is to give others a fun, rewarding experience and a product they can remember and emotionally bond with for a lifetime.
 

The magic of of my work is making something extraordinary out of something insipid, encompassing the real with the imaginary. I am the kind of artist that will create what comes organically so that we may see the true essence of the subject. Investing in me will bring someone who is able to capture special nuances of life and can enhance that memory just as it was felt.
