About Me

I am a freelance photographer, working to combine my love for art, nature, travel, the environment, adventure sports, and commercial photography. I feel fortunate to have a wide range of interests that drive me to explore the world in different ways. It is this continued exploration that keeps me motivated and coming back for more.

Biography
Born in the Appalachian mountains of North Carolina, I was raised with a true love for all living things. I discovered the camera at the young age of thirteen but it wasn't until college that I learned the skills I needed to become a professional photographer. After graduating with a BA in Industrial technology, I worked as a commercial green building consultant for 10+ years. At the height of my career I realized that my creative outlet has always been in photography and chose to take a career break. I have always felt driven to capture my experiences through photography. For me, it’s not simply about wanderlust, it’s more about having the freedom to express myself. Whether it’s exploring new places, creating images intended to evoke an emotional response, or working through my own emotions, my way of self expression is through the lens!
