I was born in Bloomington, Indiana, but I've lived in Lawrence for most of my life. I will consider myself a Kansas native for all the beautiful things its nature has to offer. Clean air being one of them. I love going out into nature and photographing life as it happens all around us. Regardless of what humans do to the planet, life will always find a way. As of lately I've taken an interest in amphibian photography. Mainly frogs because of their nature and ability to survive in and out of water. I hope to open an exhibition in the near future solely featuring frog life. It's a tribute to a dying breed.

I'm a student in pursuit of goal setting. It might sound boring but making small lists of things that I need to accomplish makes me contemplative and happy. I live to get things done. Sometimes I don't finish what I've started, but that's the way life is. And sometimes there's no going back. Pluto is still a planet in my book.
