My love for adventure and the outdoors has always been at the heart of who I am. Exploring off-the-beaten-path places, moving through nature, and capturing those moments through photography became a way to celebrate presence, strength, and the joy of being fully alive. After years of navigating chronic illness, I developed a deep appreciation for the freedom to move, explore, and connect with the world around me. Photography allows me to share that feeling with others, capturing people as they experience nature in their most authentic, empowered selves.

At the same time, my decade-long experience in the restaurant and farming industries taught me how nourishing food, thoughtful preparation, and local ingredients fuel both the body and the spirit. This naturally led me to photographing meals and beverages, highlighting the textures, flavors, and stories behind each dish while honoring the communities and people who make them possible.

Whether it’s an off-the-beaten-path hike, a quiet moment alone in the ocean, or the vibrant dishes of a local restaurant, my work celebrates presence, movement, and the joy of being fully alive on this Earth. It’s about honoring both the journey and the nourishment that fuels it, from the inside out and from the ground up.
