Portfolio
Welcome to my portfolio. Here you will find compilations of photos and videos from different locations, and projects I've worked on.
Rosie the Jawfish
Written, shot, and edited in less than a week, "Rosie the Jawfish" was a fast paced project done in collaboration with Backscatter as a way to demonstrate skills learned during my OWUSS internship. “Rosie the Jawfish” is a short film following a yellow headed jawfish through her harrowing journey to build herself a home under the sea in the Cayman Islands. It was exhibited at Backscatters 20th anniversary digital shootout in the Cayman Islands.
The Art of Understanding
The Art of Understanding explores themes of marine science through an artist's perspective. It relates the emotional experiences that came with loosing my father with research environments and the professional science world. The final project was a combination of photography, illustration, and writing. It was exhibited as part of UCSC’s annual open studios event. I encourage viewers to take the time to read the text on each piece.
Paul L. Schutt Underwater Photography Internship Pt.1
I am grateful to have been chosen as the 2023 OWUSS Paul L. Schutt Underwater Photography intern in collaboration with Backscatter. The first opportunity provided to me through this internship was attending the Backscatter Digital Shootout in Little Cayman.
Corsica Fluorescence Research
I spent two months in 2022 in Corsica France examining the reasons behind fluorescence in marine organisms. Photography was an integral tool for my research used to collect data on fluorescence presence and color. During this project, I learned the intricacies of underwater fluorescence photography.
Monterey, California
Monterey California is where I was first SCUBA certified and it continues to be one of my favorite places to dive. I continuously dive Monterey waters to practice and better my photography. Here is a collection of my underwater adventures in my own backyard.
Costa Rica Shallow Water Species Field Guide
I spent two months in 2022 in Costa Rica volunteering with a sea turtle anti poaching team at the height of nesting season. During this time I also spent my days compiling photographs of different species seen in the tide pools on the nesting beaches near Playa Negra. To see the full completed guide click the link below.
