I use my camera to enhance the stories I tell. Not only do I love to tell
a story through words I am over the moon when I get to add photos into
the mix. Since the summer of 2021 I have had my photos published with my stories.

Plant shop Adopted Roots opened last October on South Warren Street, aiming to capitalize on new renters moving downtown, looking to decorate their apartments.
