I became enamored with how images could not only capture a moment in time and space but also convey the emotion and mood of a person or perspective. Photography is like poetry in this way. It has allowed me to show others the world as I see it - sometimes concrete, sometimes dreamlike, but always infused with joy and beauty. I find a profound sense of meaning and purpose when I’m able to combine travel, photography and writing, my three loves. I currently live in the Pacific Northwest of the United States, where forests, mountains, cliffs, and the sea co-exist in their most majestic forms.
