CURRENT MISSION

To combine photography and travel.. it is my life!

ABOUT ME

I'm currently on a US Road trip!I am a Photography graduate from Philadelphia. Sometimes graphic design, but regardless - I need to get off the computer and do something. I grew up on a farm and I lived in Philly, and the shock of the two worlds has transformed me into an adaptable being. Good thing, right? My goal is to travel as much as I can with camera in hand. I don't care to see so much of the "touristy" things, even though that will be inevitable. I am truly interested in the back alleys of a city, or the deep hills of a countryside. I've lived in NJ, Rome, Maine, Alaska, Pennsylvania and Oregon. I can't wait to keep adding places to the list.

PHILOSOPHY

The world is my home, and I wanna see it all.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Worked as an Apprentice on the Schooner J&E Riggin in Rockland, Maine for over a month. Sailing everyday was amazing.

I also para-glided in Switzerland over the Alps, heli-hiked in Denali, AK, cliff jumped in Morocco ... always down for an adventure!

I can also Photoshop your face onto Brad Pitt's body .. okay maybe the younger Brad Pitt?
