Seattle-based photographer whose work centers boudoir and absurd, in-your-face erotica as acts of survival, authorship, and truth-telling. Photography became a source of purpose, identity, and meaning through single motherhood, domestic violence, and PTSD—offering both an emotional outlet and a way to reclaim agency over her body, story, and identity.
Her work treats eroticism and self expression as parallel practices: grounded in connection, authenticity, and expression rather than performance for approval. Through humor, excess, and confrontation, she challenges dominant cultural narratives around purity, sex, nudity, and who is allowed to be seen without apology. These images resist sanitization, inviting viewers to examine their own discomfort and the systems that shaped it.
At the forefront of her work is intimacy as labor, art as embodiment, and desire as something loud, human, and politically charged.
