About Me

Having had the fortune of living a nomadic lifestyle all my adult life moving every few years between different countries by virtue of my professional career in the foreign service, I have been intrigued by various cultures, traditions and customs through my immersive experiences in these diverse environments.  Currently based in Manila, Philippines, I continue to strive as a visual storyteller to tell stories, particularly with my project on Living Traditions, highlighting how ceremonies, rituals, and traditional art forms connect people with the gods, ancestors, family and community.
