While attending Rutgers University (2004 graduate), I was given the oppurtunity to explore many forms of my artistic abilities. With Anthropology being my second major, I have always had a great interest in the use of images to explore different cultures. When painting, I enjoyed working from my own photographs. I am always concerned with learning as much as I can about other cultures, therefore using my own photographs allow me the chance to dig a little deeper into the world around me, discovering something about the subject and/or simply to document a moment of the subject life.
