About

I’m a Pacific Northwest native, born in the Seattle area, where I’ve spent most of my life living in and exploring this beautiful corner of the world.

My interest in photography was sparked at a young age when I discovered several old cameras in my grandparents’ attic. I was fascinated by them and convinced my grandparents to buy film so I could learn how the cameras worked. I’m grateful they encouraged my curiosity and continued to support me throughout my childhood.

In high school, I enrolled in a photography class, where I had the privilege of learning from an amazing instructor, Bob Runyon, a local photographer. Bob organized a lecture series featuring National Geographic photographers, which he offered to us students. This experience has stayed with me my entire life and continues to inspire my work.

I continued to pursue photography and art throughout my college career, earning a degree in Fine Arts from Washington State University.

Recently, during a National Geographic cruise of the Inside Passage to Alaska, my love affair with photography was rekindled. I’m excited to be holding a camera again, capturing the world through my lens.

I bring a unique perspective to my photography, shaped by my experiences, spirituality, career in technology, and love of the outdoors. In each shot, I strive to capture those fleeting moments in time—the essence of an experience, the magic, and wonder of the world around us.

In addition to my passion for photography, I’m an accomplished IT professional, currently supporting technology solutions focused on sustainability initiatives.

Witness a moment. Reality is in an eternal state of change. Take the time to embrace each and every moment.
