I was born and raised in Seattle, Washington. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest my visual aesthetic was groomed daily by the conducive environment. Following my mother’s lead, as a young kid I wanted to document my life through photos. Over the years photography has become my journal of choice - seeing a single photo can trigger countless vivid memories.
I graduated from Seattle Pacific University with a degree in Communications and Business. Right out of college I accepted a job with NBC, working as the Music Coordinator at The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien in Los Angeles, California. During this time I also started taking photos professionally. However, with an undying itch to travel the world and meet all walks of life, I shifted gears and accepted a job as the Assistant Tour Manager for Jack White. Subsequently I spent the next several years traveling all over the world with artists/bands such as Beck, Jack White, Foster the People, The Head and The Heart, and Death Cab for Cutie. Throughout my years of touring - photography remains to be my cherished journal for all my experiences and relationships.
In 2018, I hung up my tour manager hat, and directed my energy toward my own creative craft. I love my job. I love meeting new people from all walks of life, and being trusted to capture their most sacred memories. That honor is the coolest part of my job. I’m a sentimental person with a camera, who loves to observe.
