A little about me

Born in California and raised in Iowa by two artists, father who is a photographer and mother who is a painter. Throughout my life and career I have always been in able express my creativity through a variety of mediums - photos and words.

Recently, I relocated to the Midwest for family. My father was an avid train and landscape photographer, who inspired photography in the family. My professional career has bee both in the public and private sectors for global organizations. For the past several years, I have held various roles within the non-profit, education and government sector from being a fundraiser to developing community-based programs.

In 2005, I took up photography to meet people and travel with the Mountaineers, a local conservation and social organization located in the Pacific Northwest. That life plan got off track in California. Travel photography is my passion, so trying to find a group in the Midwest.

Photos on this site have been taken with either a Nikon D3300 DSLR or Fuji DSLR Camera. If you want to see my social iPhone photos, please go to Trip Advisor and Yelp.
