ABOUT
Hi! First off thank you for taking the time to visit my portfolio website. A little bit about myself, I am a full stack web developer living in New York City and an amateur travel photographer. I have been studying web development through the Flatiron School immersive course. I started photography while living in Thailand. I lived in Thailand from 2012-2015 and worked as a teacher. Before moving abroad, I worked as a personal injury paralegal. I enjoyed working in law but realized that my passions for travel and adventure were not being met. After working there for two years, I packed up my things and bought a one way ticket to South East Asia. During my time there I was able to travel extensively through Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, India, Nepal and Myanmar.
My inspiration for my web development projects comes from my interest in the intersection of life and technology. My projects are inspired by my life and travels.
My photography work is mainly focused on people. I strive to capture moments that are real and reflective of a time and place. I was lucky enough to be in some incredible places, with even more incredible people. My Nepal project ended four days before the devastating earthquake occurred. I captured many of the now decimated religious sites days before it happened. I am always looking for new techniques and ways to build upon my work. Please feel free to leave comments or contact me!
