I am a multifaceted artist based in Houston, Texas, with a focus on photography, DJing, and music production. My work is driven by a deep belief that music is one of the greatest unifiers of people and culture. This connection has inspired me to document the vibrant nightclub scene in Houston, where music and movement become a powerful form of collective expression and escape. These spaces not only foster community but also serve as safe havens for marginalized groups, including BIPOC and the LGBTQ+ community.

Through my time documenting this scene, I’ve come to recognize the profound way people use dance and music as a form of liberation and release. My goal is to capture the raw emotion and intensity of individuals seeking freedom from a system that has long ignored them. The chaos and beauty of these moments reflect a deeper yearning for self-expression and collective resilience. Together, we all dance.
