The first birthday gift that truly surprised me was a film camera. I was six years old.

Since then, the shift to digital photography has been just one of many changes in how I photograph. I completed an Advanced Course of Travel Photography with the Photographic Society of Singapore¹ and a workshop on Editing Your Work with David H. Wells². After that, I took a course on Photographic Storytelling with the Dutch-born photographer Guus Rijven³ and a workshop on Short Story Writing with Lisa Friedman. I joined Pie Aerts² Visual Storytelling masterclass in 2023.

My work has been featured in over 80 press stories and in four photo books I have published since 2011.

I have lived and worked in the Netherlands since 2013. Before that, I lived in Portugal, Italy, the United States, Switzerland, and Singapore. I remain as fascinated by photography as I was when I was six years old.
