My background is in acting, costume/ set/ lighting design, playwriting and in art.
6 years ago I developed Trigeminal Neuralgia... an extremely painful nerve disorder of the face.

Even though I take photographs of a variety of subjects, I seem to focus on self-portraits. I'm fascinated by the fact of what we hide behind our faces, even though we may be truly suffering inside... physically or emotionally.
