While I have been many things; an athlete, nurse and adventurer —I have always been a maker and artist. My practice centers around digital and large format photography. Textiles; knitting, quilting and needlework are parallel practices. The physicality in hiking to remote landscapes and the transformation of fiber into something wearable, speak to my love of adventure and the construction of something tangible.
After 2 years working in St. Bartholomew’s Hospital in London, England, my sister and I spent 8 months traveling around the world. It was an incredibly rich and formidable experience. By 40, I had been to every continent, including running a marathon on Antarctica.
Photography has my undivided attention with a passion to create a body of work that reflects my love of the wide open and themes of belonging and longing in the aging process.
