i have always felt a strong affinity for the arts as well as the sciences and taken an interest in the interplay between the creative and the analytic. maintaining an artistic practice keeps me grounded and is essential to my well-being as i move through an academic career path in the sciences

i first picked up disposable cameras as a teenager, moving on to a cute la sardina point-and-shoot my parents gifted me for high school graduation before developing a more formal grounding in analog photography through a b&w/darkroom class at berkeley’s art studio while in college. since then, i’ve continued to explore in the realm of 35mm photography with the help of friends and the film community on instagram

i shoot with a canon elan, a canon ae-1, and a minolta srt101. some of my favorite film stocks include kodak portra 400, ektar 100 & gold 200, ilford hp5 & xp2, ektar 100, and fujifilm superia 400
