Growing up in Southwest Louisiana has instilled a sense of pride in my geographic place. I've taken the foundations that my parents and elders have created and incorporated the values that my home provides into my everyday life today. I've found myself collecting many different hobbies and passions through my years and have always made an effort to share what I do with other people. Through Photograph, cooking, and performing Cajun music I've had the chance to see so many different places and experience culture in many aspects. Through my following of these passions, I've been fortunate to meet many people and expand my personal culture while sharing it with others who find themselves interested. Through my music, I'm able to connect with the community in movement and an audible telling of the past and present of our indigenous music here in Cajun country. Through food, I am able to give people a taste of Louisiana's best fares and educate others on how it's made and why the food came to be. Through my Photography I hope to transport people to a place in time and on the map, to give others a look into the Eyes of the people who make Louisiana such a unique and wonderful place.
