After completing a BFA in Photography from Art Center College of Design,  she worked as an award-winning advertising and editorial photographer for over a decade. She then returned to school to earn an MFA in Art from Claremont Graduate University. While there, in addition to producing her own work, she also curated several large art projects and has continued that commitment to community through the organizing of photo-related events. Shortly after graduation she joined the Visual and Media Arts Department at Long Beach City College, where she has served as Chair and is now the Digital Media Program Coordinator.  

Her photographs have been included in a large number of solo and group exhibitions in the United States and internationally and have been featured in numerous publications.  In 2008 Balcony Press released Austin Val Verde: Impressions of a Montecito Masterpiece, a monograph of her Val Verde project.  She continues to teach and pursue her photographic interests in her most recent series  The Chance Chronicles, a constructed set of landscapes inspired through meditation.
