My story

Hello, thanks for stopping by!

At the heart of who I am, I am curious about the world around me. I grew up in Solon, Ohio and was fortunate enough to have a family who encouraged me to get out, play, explore, and ask as many questions as I could. This set the foundation of who I would become as an adult. 

I currently work as an Expedition Guide in Southeast Alaska and Baja California. This, compounded with travels I have taken on my own, lit a fire in me. A fire to see beautiful places and to meet incredible people. Along the way, I have been a witness to the effects we as humans have on the environment and creatures we share the earth with, good and bad. So I picked up a camera. 

I am a wildlife and landscape photographer.  I am an avid traveler, doing so for work and pleasure. When I am not on the road, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, my dog, Cody, and playing in the Metro Parks around Cleveland. I also enjoy SCUBA and free diving, rock climbing, birding, and any other shenanigans I can get myself into.
