About me

To me, it's just change.
16 July 2018
I was thinking about all the construction that's around me every day. Yeah, one can hear about why building go up or get torn down, but to me, it's just change. I walked by this construction site the other day. I was out to document it all a bit more.

Mountain Rain
17 July 2020
I left the city for a couple days. The rain was intense and I needed to capture those memories in more ways than one. I had a good time creating this video, the photos in it, and the music. Sit back, relax, put in your headphones and enjoy.
