My photography strives to capture the contradictions, diversity, and unconventional beauty—considered blight by some—that manifests itself everyday on the streets I walk in Queens, NYC. I am particularly interested in illustrations of immigrant life, signage, street art, found objects, and the mutually symbiotic relationship of spatial separation that the boroughs have with Manhattan and its mythic skyline.
I am continually enthralled by this city, where a 15 minute subway ride can transport one into areas with diametrically contrasting visual surroundings, inequality, and city services. In short, the opulence and gleam of Manhattan would simply not be possible without the scraggly allure and latent radiance of the oft-neglected boroughs I strive to document.
I love Manhattan, those photos make we wanna go back asap!
Anyone ever heard of Lotofaga village? Definitely a place to go in your life!
Isn’t that the coolest slide ever?!
Did you see the Oreo “Whisper Fight” ad? It’s one of our favs from last nights super bowl ads.
Classical violins mixed with dubstep…wow!
I first picked up a DSLR so that I could start liking the city I live in. I thought that if I was forced to explore it, then I would come to like it. Since then, I’ve come to love taking pictures. I like landscape, nature, and little details. I would like to take more portraiture.
Beautiful landscape!

This photo is well-balanced. The artist made an awesome contrast in this photograph. Perfect timing on that time of the day I think?...
