While studying architecture I was encouraged by a professor to document everything I saw for 10 weeks. Tens of thousands of snapshots later, I never stopped that documentation process. I love the concept of Instagram and the luxury of sharing creativity and inspiration whenever the mood strikes. The things that catch my eye can be found throughout the city: I see the coolest of unsuspecting things—colors, shapes, materials—all of which inspire me in some way.

The Memorial to the Martyrs of the Deportation is one of my favourite spaces/places, where I find peace. I was in Paris amidst the immigrant strikes, and found myself there.

In the U.S., we’re fortunate to have nine distinct climates all on one continent. I take advantage of this as often as possible by roadtripping from Seattle, to various points around the country.
