When I was a kid my parents fought everyday. My Dad was unemployed and beat us regularly. This was a blessing, because I learned to fight back and stand up for my beliefs. When I turned 18 my parents kicked me out of the house. This was a blessing because I learned to be independent. Because I had to work three jobs to make ends meet, I started failing school. This was a blessing because I learned how to study and focus. I also I learned to manage my time and finances. I graduated with a Computer Science degree, and worked many years as a Cyber security engineer. Although I loved my job, I felt that something was missing. I was introduced to fine art photography and found a sense of completeness. I learned that art could help me experience a sense of magic and wellness. Because of that, I now want to share that same feeling and energy with the world through art photography. Since then I've been an art writer for international fine art magazine 'Beautiful Bizarre'. I've exhibited at the Beverly Hills Art Show. Finally, I've been teaching Fine Art Photography, Design and Photos at the Los Angeles Center of Photography.
