Today Marks Two Years Since I hopped on a Flight and Moved to Germany.
Sometimes its hard to believe that I made a twelve year long dream come to life and moved to Europe to further my art career. I honestly had never even been to Germany before and had never lived anywhere but Arizona. BUT. If there’s one thing I am always going to do, it’s bet on myself!
I’ve already held my first solo exhibition in Berlin and continue to expand within Germany and beyond. What a wonderful way to celebrate today by sharing the latest addition of PHOENIX Magazine in which I have a two page spread for a story titled “Exit Interviews” that originally aired on NPR about Phoenicians who moved to further their career. You can catch me on page 142 and read more about why I left Phoenix for Germany and maybe even find out if I’m coming back... Listen to the original/ full interview by clicking here.
As always, thank you for supporting my art. Be sure to follow and tag me when you grab a copy of the magazine!
This was my first big magazine shoot in Berlin and it was a beautiful experience. I had the opportunity to conceptualize and shoot with my dear friend A’ja Dotson (pictured below). A’ja hails from Seattle/ Oakland and has lived and worked in Berlin for over four years. She is a highly skilled and visionary photographer that I knew could capture me in a powerful way. It was such a joy to work with her. Be sure to follow and support her work by clicking here!
