Bio

Exploring wild places began at a very young age when I wandered in the woodland areas surrounding my home in coastal Nova Scotia. These wanderings set my imagination on fire and were fuelled by discovery and a strong sense of wonder.  Always curious, my explorations have developed into a lifelong love of natural history and wild places, especially the hidden worlds and easily overlooked subjects. I have a restless curiosity about anything botanical, and my observations and keen interest in detail have guided me in developing my art practice. I seek to express my life experiences creatively and in thought-provoking photographs. It is in macro/intimate landscape/still life photography that I feel a strong sense of calm and quietly slip into the silence of making images. The textural beauty, structures, patterns, and fine details in my subjects are highlighted in my work.

My background is in critical care nursing, specializing in ICU, CCU, aeromedical evacuation, and forensic nursing (formerly with the Canadian Armed Forces and the NS Health Authority), followed by earth science and toxicology.

My photography has been included in several group and solo exhibitions in Nova Scotia at ViewPoint and Studio Lab Galleries and in many select publications and podcasts.
