statement

My passion for photography was preceded by a passion for the environment.  With an undergraduate degree in fisheries and wildlife, I knew that I wanted my life’s work to revolve around making a positive impact on our planet.

Before I began seeing the world in frames, I would often walk from one place to another without ever looking up or down.  As a photographer, I find myself seeing the world at a slower pace; stopping to examine scenes of life that I used to take for granted, an isolated tree filled with seemingly impatient birds, a farmer’s field with a crooked barn, or the texture of decades of rust on the side of an old chevy.

I feel like I’m especially drawn to places and objects that have been neglected. I love to see how nature slowly reclaims that which is abandoned by humans.

My work has been shown at the Perlow-Stevens Art Gallery in Columbia, Missouri and at the Kennedy Gallery in Northampton, Massachusetts.
