“With each photograph it’s always my intent to raise awareness of endangered and threatened species and habitats that we stand to lose in the natural world if we are not careful. I’m inspired to capture and share the fragile beauty and wonder that is nature. And, in doing so touch people’s hearts and minds to bring inner peace.” She is represented by the Collectors’ Gallery, Venice, FL.
