About
I am a New York City-based multidisciplinary creative and event producer. I write, take photos, and produce and DJ electronic music. I also throw an electronic music event called Stop1 based in Brooklyn.
All of my pursuits center around learning, documenting, and affecting how people exist in the world. I produce events chiefly with an understanding of how humans respond to spaces, stimuli, and social scenes. My photography focuses on capturing moments and the inner life of my subjects, and I produce music and DJ with the purpose of fostering connection with people on the dance floor.
Bio
Outside of the classroom I played rugby for 3 years, but after my 3rd concussion had to quit. When I was at Sciences Po, I was part of the poetry club, Sciences Poésie, and wrote for the student newspaper. I also threw a lot of events and parties and was a DJ.
After I graduated, I moved to Georgia, the country, for 7 months to be a math teacher.
I returned to NYC in January 2024. After a few projects across photography, real estate fintech, and a brief startup, I joined Faraday in November 2025 as operations manager. Faraday is the back-office operating system for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical contractors.
