Bio

I am an independent photojournalist and photography educator based in South Bend, Indiana.

I started making pictures when I lived in rural Cambodia, where I worked as a Peace Corps volunteer (2012-2014). I found myself exploring the community and culture that surrounded me with my simple digital camera.

After I finished my service, I enrolled at the University of Missouri - Columbia, where I earned my M.A. in journalism (2015-2017). After I finished my degree, I spent a couple years out in Utah, where I worked in daily news for a county paper. In 2019, I moved to South Bend, Indiana, where I currently work as an independent photojournalist.

I am drawn to stories that focus on community, conservation, and culture.
