About Me

I’ve been hiking, kayaking and adventuring since the day I was born, under duress until about 12, voluntarily since then.

Photography has been a hobby since high school, and it allows me to share my adventures and inspires my art projects when I’m back at home. If you’re interested in my screenprints and other art you can find them at StellaNova Prints.
