My first photographs were fuzzy disposable frames of random leaves and my headless parents, taken as I angled up from my five-year-old height. Since then, I have never been far from a camera or journal. Thankfully, the quality of my work has grown with me, and I can confidently say all heads will make it in the frame now. 

My most favorite days "in the office" are spent far from service, deeply engrossed in the natural world and astutely present to the humans sharing that sacred space. Whether capturing the perfect image for a magazine spread or creating a powerful visual story for commercial clients, my photography maintains an authentic, documentary style. I'm a nerd for finding that perfect moment—extra bonus points and goose bumps for perfect light—and creating magic in these found moments. 

In the editorial realm, I've had the incredible honor to interview, photograph, and write the powerful stories of countless individuals. The privilege of being on the front lines of history is never lost on me, and my journalistic work focuses on three tenets above all else: honoring the humans in the stories I produce, amplifying underrepresented voices, and personifying complex social issues. 

My educational background marries degrees in both sociology and journalism—with an emphasis in photojournalism—as I strive to engage with storytelling in a responsible, holistic manner that remains informed of the world into which stories enter and transform.

 

I could chat about journalism, photography, and that haze-tinged light that filters through mossy trees on the most flawless PNW days for hours, so please reach out to further geek out with me.
