I'm a self-taught photographer who shoots both film and digital — though what you'll find here is my film work, captured on vintage cameras, including one that's over 50 years old. My debut series, Ballet on Film, follows a Honolulu ballet school as it navigates and innovates through the pandemic. It earned an international award from The Photo Review, a Best of Photo Vogue selection, and has been exhibited in Honolulu and New York.

I also bring over 15 years of music curation experience — having served 100+ brands worldwide. I've learned that the right soundtrack doesn't just fill space; it creates atmosphere, builds connection, and becomes inseparable from the experience itself. Each playlist is crafted around the emotions a brand wants its customers to feel — less about eras and genres, more about the feeling that stays with guests long after they've gone.

Finally as founder of LKC Agency, I help hospitality, retail, and lifestyle brands build authentic connections through creative strategy and marketing.
