I’m a photographer, darkroom practitioner, and visual researcher based in San Antonio, Texas. My work explores the intersections between photographic history, material process, and contemporary image-making — grounded in a deep respect for the physical nature of the medium.

I’ve built a practice that bridges technical knowledge and artistic expression. I maintain a fully functioning home darkroom where I process film across all formats, print on silver gelatin paper, and experiment with alternative processes such as wet plate collodion and platinum-palladium printing. This analog foundation has shaped the way I think about photography as both a mechanical and human act — one that connects chemistry, patience, and observation in ways that Modern tools cannot replicate.

Professionally, I spent nearly three years at Digital Pro Lab, where I assisted artists and photographers at all stages of their creative process — from scanning and restoration to exhibition-quality printing. Working closely with such a range of artists deepened my interest in how photographic work circulates, is preserved, and is experienced across different contexts.

I’m also engaged in research surrounding the history of photography, photobooks, and photographic ephemera. I’m passionate about sharing this knowledge and supporting spaces that value craft, dialogue, and experimentation.

Whether in my darkroom, archive, or eventually in a classroom, my goal is to help sustain photography’s traditions while pushing the envelope in what photography can inspire in others.
