BIO

The common thread of my professional life revolves around the narrative.  

In graduate school, I studied Earth's past climate states to inform our current moment on a planet increasingly defined by human impact. 

Thereafter, I taught biology, chemistry, and environmental science in an integrated curriculum toward understanding the history of life on Earth. 

Photography is also a pursuit of documentation and storytelling for me. 

 

I am currently working on a few longer term projects:  the role of parks in post-pandemic community, urban working class biographies, and birds in the Anthropocene. 

My photographic biography from a show with John McCabe at Dwight-Englewood School in Fall 2022:

 

"I got my start practicing photography through watching wildlife in my early ‘20s.  Both in southern Africa and then New England, I took many identification photos – especially of birds—and began to care more about the artistic quality much later.  Moving to New York, it was hard not to dabble in street photography; connecting with local photo walks and the NYC street photo community morphed into what is today my primary ‘genre’ of work.  But most of the pieces I present here I shot during the pandemic. Its different phases, and their intersections with my own health, pushed my photography to take on emotional valence.

 

These scenes comprise a bit of a ‘greatest hits’ of my first five years in New York—but especially the projection, and retroflection, of emotions on the street during the first respiratory pandemic in 100 years."
