Artistry
Preserve your curiosity
I have owned and operated multiple small businesses including an apothecary, a fine photography and portrait studio, a video production company, a fine jewelry and stone-setting line, and a digital art and portrait commissions service.
The variety of experiences I've acquired have developed in me a keen eye for branding and design. I'm a passionate and curious person with a diverse background because of my willingness to prioritize trying new things. I believe curiosity is worth preserving and the skills, insights, and lessons I've learned from following my curiosity have proved invaluable in my professional career.

To me, there's nothing more horrifying than a completely blank canvas, yet there's nothing as satisfying as seeing the pieces come together.
I take commissions and am open to working with you on illustrative needs.

I've worked as a product photographer for a variety of businesses, and the typical request is a white background. When it came to my own product, I decided I wanted more story than a white background could portray.
