Photography found me at a time when I felt lost. For years, I worked on an ambulance, dedicating myself to helping others in moments of crisis. It was more than a career; it was a calling. After a back injury forced me to resign, I faced an unexpected and painful transition—stepping away from the profession I had dreamed of since I was a child. The weight of that loss was overwhelming, leaving me searching for a new purpose.

In the midst of that uncertainty, I picked up a camera. What began as a distraction soon became a passion, a form of therapy, and a way to reconnect with the world on my own terms. Photography gave me motivation, a reason to explore, to create, and to find peace in moments both big and small. Through the lens, I learned to slow down, to appreciate the details, and to see beauty in everyday life.

Now, I find joy in capturing and solidifying the moments that matter most to others. Whether it’s the quiet intensity of a speaker at an event, the raw emotion of a protest, the joy in a graduate’s eye, the untamed presence of wildlife or the energy and intensity of a sports game, I strive to preserve these moments as they unfold—genuine, unfiltered, and meaningful. Each photograph is more than an image; it’s a testament to the fleeting yet powerful moments that define our lives.

While my path has changed, my purpose remains the same: to be present, to document, and to help others see the significance in the moments that shape us. Photography has given me a new way to serve, and through it, I continue to find healing and fulfillment.
