I love movement. 

My interest in circus arts and diving have something in common: movement in a three dimensional plane, where my feet are no longer on the ground. 

Moving underwater is a beautiful new medium for me. I dance, freedive, and do yoga with my eyes closed, and all of those things invite a deeper union between mind, spirit, and body. It's not just an escape, but a way of expression, a journey into the somatic body & through the nervous system. 

I often work with women to do underwater shoots as the photographer, and having a background in modeling underwater helps me demonstrate to them which poses to take. 

I am also fortunate that many of my friends are talented underwater photographers, so we're often able to take photos of each other.
