bio
My Dad won a 'point & shoot' camera at work when she was 13 and my dream of attending law school promptly died. I studied art and photography at the Etobicoke School of the Arts, BEALart and the Ontario College of Art. In 1997, I dropped out of OCA to travel to South East Asia to document the lives of the All Burma's Students Democratic Front (ABSDF) and the refugees living in the border area between Thailand and Burma. Images from my adventures in Burma were featured in Vice Magazines' 10 year retrospect "The Photo Book".
I'm a compulsive collector of cameras, addicted to flickr and when when I am not developing web products for OUTtv, I can be found somewhere else in the world taking pictures.
I am available for freelance assignments and projects. To inquire about rates and bookings please feel free to contact me:
