"I am a Conceptual Photographer with a portfolio of more than 70 design concepts featuring my own prop fabrication, staging, costuming, modeling, makeup-artistry and retouching.
While I have a professional background in NonProfit Management Consulting, Art History and Administration, and Literary Arts, my current artistic efforts are focused in the visual arts, primarily self-portraiture. My art embodies an element of allegory, where I aim to bring social and spiritual metaphors to life. Each image features narrative prose to amplify the conceptual context. My work has explored such abstractions as Regret, Missed Opportunities, Despair, Patience, and Restoration."
