///
I reside on a working farm in New Jersey (USA) near the Musconetcong and Delaware Rivers with my husband, son, and a little black cat.
PHOTOGRAPHY & WRITING
My visual work is cinematic and rich, exploring the texture of falling darkness, the self and others in context, and the senses. Illuminated windows, wildflowers, shadowy forests, passing cars, my family and my own form appear my images. My visual work is often paired with lyrical memoir.

MUSIC
I perform with the band, Hollow Howl, adding my deep vocals to the band’s dark, evocative punk sound. Performing is a supreme joy.

WILD PLANTS
Also a professional grower of native plants, my sensitivity to nature richly informs my creative life. I co-own Wild Ridge Plants with my husband, Jared.
