I am an ICU Nurse, and in the post Covid world I found myself drained and exhausted. Photography allowed me to appreciate the details of the world around me and provided a quiet escape from the realities of my professional career. February will mark my first year of being an amateur photographer. My work has been featured in the Black and White Gallery in New York City, and Black Box gallery in Portland, Oregon. I’m so grateful for the places photography has already taken me, and can’t wait to see what’s next.
