Although born and raised in Ohio, I spent much of my career in the Adirondack Mountains in Upstate NY, where I developed a deep connection to the land and to storytelling through imagery.

​

Over the years, I’ve hiked more than 8,000 miles, traveled to over 30 countries, and built a body of work featured in award-winning projects and dozens of publications. My time in the mountains taught me that photography is more than a craft — it’s a way to connect people to the beauty and meaning already present in the world.

Today, my goal is to use my work to benefit others — to help people and places be seen, to bring light where it’s needed, and to inspire hope through the art of photography. My faith shapes that vision profoundly; it’s what drives me to create with purpose, to serve with humility, and to see creation as a reflection of something greater.   Romans 1:20
