I am a storyteller.

As an observer of life, I find beauty in the mundane and seek out the quiet drama of the everyday. My work often explores themes of isolation, displacement, and solitude—capturing the many faces of humanity scattered across the urban landscape.

Though the people I photograph are strangers and the places unfamiliar, they often feel strangely familiar—like echoes of something distant yet known. Drawn to mystery and ambiguity, I leave my visual narratives open to interpretation.

Joan Didion’s words, “We tell ourselves stories in order to live,” resonate with me deeply. From that belief, my own truth was born: “We photograph in order to live.”

These words hold personal significance, as they reflect why I photograph: to tell stories—and in telling them, to live.
