New Studio

In February 2020, I moved with Gravy Studio + Gallery to a new location in another part of Fishtown. I work out of the studio on both professional and personal projects and find the space’s availability and control of natural light to be perfect.

Gravy Studio + Gallery

In March 2019, I became a member of Gravy Studio. Gravy is a Philly-based collective that curates exhibitions showcasing the work of national and regional visual artists, offers free or low-cost community programming and workshops, and supports local artists via a blog and online store. I also use the space as a studio and shoot both personal and freelance projects there.

Project Basho is a photo organization in Old Kensington. The center offers dark room facilities, critiques, hosts lectures, photography exhibitions, and more.

I’ve been helping out at Project Basho for about two years, doing anything from serving as lab monitor and planning exhibition spaces, to framing, mounting and hanging photography for exhibitions.

Project Basho’s current exhibition is their annual competition ONWARD, an international photography exhibition and resource center for emerging photographers around the world.

The Philadelphia Photo Arts Center is an organization that offers photography workshops, lectures, and exhibitions. I’ve been a member for two years and had the honor of having one of my photographs “Claire” accepted into their 6th Annual Contemporary Photography Exhibition. The show was juried by Whitney Richardson, Photo Editor of The New York Times, and Paige West, Curator and Gallery Owner of West Collection, NYC.

I’ve had the pleasure of working at the PHL Art Book Fair for the past two years. It is a growing event and this year included 60 exhibitors, including photographers, art book publishers, artists and institutions, from 17 states.

I learned about the fair while interning at The Print Center, a gallery in the Rittenhouse Square neighborhood that focuses on exhibiting, publishing and educational programs that focus on photography and other print related art.

The event is also hosted by The Philadelphia Photo Arts Center, an organization that offers photography workshops, lectures, and exhibitions. I had the honor of having one of my photographs accepted into their 6th Annual Contemporary Photography Juried Exhibition.

Grounds for Thought installation

While acting as vice president of BGSU’s Photo Club, I organized a gallery show held at a cafe for our group that exhibited a series of locally related work representing the town of Bowling Green. The show debuted at the area’s 22nd Annual Art Walk, sponsored by the Bowling Green Arts Council, and remained on display for the month of April. Below is an example of one of my prints that sold at the event.
