Introduction I am a realist who dreams at the end of the day. I'm on a constant road of change - always trying to take off flying. I live for experiences! I'm a sucker for dresses and typography.... particularly GARAMOND! I try to capture beauty as best as I can - through a lens or with my hands. I'm often watching people - capturing and categorizing behavior. Full blown romantic but I never lose sight of the realism of possibilities.
