About

I’m a self-taught photographer and filmmaker based in Brooklyn, with over a decade of experience capturing stories that feel real and deeply human. My work has taken me from photographing icons like Naomi Campbell and SZA to contributing to The New York Times and creating campaigns for brands like Nike and Beats by Dre. My directorial debut, Cruzan Cowboys, premiered at the 2023 Tribeca Film Festival and told the story of a horseback riding community in St. Croix fighting to preserve their traditions. Through both stills and film, I’m driven by a love for storytelling—connecting with people, exploring culture, and shining a light on voices and histories that deserve to be seen and remembered. For me, photography and filmmaking are about better understanding the world—and sharing what I find.
