Creative Identity
I am a fifth-generation Californian and grew up in Venice (CA), where the multi-cultural diversity and bohemian sensibilities of the area influenced my development as a writer, photographer, and artist. Educated in the Humanities, I would sum up my creative identity as a historian by schooling, an observer of the natural realm by inclination, and a voyager through the world of spirit by compulsion. I explore the convergence of history, place, and culture in my creative works, often infusing my pieces with a spirit of otherworldliness. My short stories, photographs, and digital art appear regularly at the Soul Food Cafe website. I currently reside atop an ancient sand dune near Los Angeles.
