Photography has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, beginning with my Kodak Brownie at age 10. Traveling to new places inspires me though I find endless inspiration in my own backyard. My love of photography has shaped the way I look at the world around me. 

I retired in 2014 after a 38 year career in nursing. It was then I began to learn more about photography.  New equipment, classes, field trips, and spending time with other photographers has helped me to broaden my knowledge.

Nature is my favorite subject. I love the smallest details and the largest landscapes. I especially like photographing water reflections and sand dunes. I aspire to find beauty in unexpected places and convey my vision of the world through my photographs.
