Born and raised in Los Angeles, Introduced to photography by my father, who worked in news and put a camera in my hands early on, knowing I needed a way to express myself with my learning, disabilities. Traveling the world with him shaped how I see people and stories.
What I learned is simple: capture Black and Brown people as they truly are full of life, depth, and beauty. No stereotypes. Even in hard moments, there is still light in us.
“Black Matter” comes from a personal place. During a time I didn’t feel safe in my own country, I moved to Paris searching for something different. Not perfect just different.
After witnessing the loss of so many unarmed lives, I began to think deeply about how we are seen. A conversation with my sister about the science of Black Matter: the universe can’t exist without it. In the same way, we contribute so much to the world—often without recognition.
This work is my protest.
thank you so much for all the support for the book that sold out and the solo exhibit in Boston, which was a super success thank you so much
